Project "Mission I Want to Know, I Want to Be" BG05 / 984 is financed under the NGO Support Program in Bulgaria.
The idea of the project was for young people to get acquainted with the Western European model of civic participation. Young people who are not aware of where they can find information about their rights and who do not know the positive aspects of volunteering do not have the opportunity to actively contribute to the development of society as a whole.

Goals:
The aim of the project is to introduce the principles of volunteering for which there is insufficient information in Bulgaria, to enable young people to learn more about their rights as European citizens; to acquire new skills through volunteer practices and to pass on the lessons learned to their peers. The specific objective of the project is to provide students with information about volunteering and networking in the social media through which they can receive, exchange and update information on volunteer practices and civil rights.
Results:
The project will help solving the problem with volunteering by training 25 young people from high schools in Sofia to seek information about basic civil rights and opportunities offered by civil society through an engagement in volunteer practices. The target group of the project are students aged 14 to 18 years of age.
