We are very encouraged to participate in the international youth projects and support our teenagers of 13-16 and youth 16-30 years old in setting up Youth Exchanges and Youth Initiatives under Erasmus+ programme. We are very interested in meeting new friends from all over the world, travelling, discovering new cultures and lifestyles, communicating in English and trying to learn other languages, getting new experience and great memories!
We started our new project of Youth Center of Social Entrepreneurship to foster young people employability and support their entrepreneurship spirit. We help our youngsters to develop their creative ideas and get financing in the local projects; we provide an opportunity to make own money through workshops; we organise non-formal education for languages and career guidance, and we support the volunteering activities.
In Young Folks LV we organised a nice and cosy youth space – YUMTA. It’s the best youth place in Riga for learning and leisure, and everybody is very welcome!

Presentation of the program

CAMP&FEST is an ESC Team Volunteering opportunity taking place on 9-22 July 2026 in Riga and Veczemju Klintis, Latvia. The project brings together international volunteers (+local camp leaders and youth workers) to support a summer camp for teenagers aged 12-16 and and youth festival programme for 100+ people. The mobility includes preparation and team building in Riga, a tent-based camp in Veczemju Klintis from 13–17 July, and the festival programme on 18-19 July. Veczemju Klintis is a beautiful coastal area with a sea beach and red sandstone cliffs. Volunteers will help lead activities, facilitate creative workshops, support daily camp life, create media content, assist with logistics and help build a safe and inclusive atmosphere for young people.

Extra information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
  • Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport
