ANTER (National Associationfor Support of Ecological Youth of Romania) was founded on 04 october 2008 in Craiova, Romania. Its goal is "to promote the development of civic consciousness in general and eco-civic consciousness particulary, but also to sustain the young people involvement in the civic life.
ANTER is a totally independent association which brings together young people with ages between18 and 35 years, from different areas without distinction of nationality, sex, religion, political and religious beliefs. ANTER has 20 members and more than 100 volunteers who are interested in solving environmental problemsand being involved in civic activities. Also, we had different activities regarding intercultural exchanges between people who belong to different cultures (Roma, Polish, Bulgarian, Greec, Turkish). Also, in all of our projects we involved fewer opportunities youngsters and some of them became members of ANTER Craiova.
ANTER is an NGO situated in Craiova, Romania one of the biggest cities of Romania.
Our team is young, fun and creative, but at the same time very experienced in the EVS field, fact that can be proved by our numerous ex-EVS volunteers all over the word very satisfied by their stage here.
Our main aim is to remind the community about their ecological responsibility through different types of activities, such as awareness campaigns, workshops, training courses, public events etc.
At local level we have partnership with most important public institutions, so for these reason we offer a great impact on the personal and professional development of the volunteers, adjusting the project activities to their learning needs.
In the present we offer for all volunteers on-going employ ability or entrepreneurial training courses in order to facilitate at the end of the EVS the "dream job" access.
