Project Environment The project will take place in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey and the living witness of the establishment of Turkish Republic.
Today's modern city situated at the core of Anatolia hides an ancient site behind dating back even to prehistorically time. "Ankara is surrounded by barren steppe vegetation, with various Hittite, Phrygian, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman archaeological sites. It has a dry continental climate with cold, snowy winters and hot, dry summers. The hill which overlooks the city is crowned by the ruins of the old castle, which adds to the picturesque of the view, but only a few historic structures surrounding the old citadel have survived to our date. There are many finely preserved remains of Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine architecture, the most remarkable being the Temple of Augustus and Rome (20 BC), which is also known as the Monumentum Ancyranum.
" The volunteers will have 2 days off per week and 2 extra days off for a month. Youth - European Voluntary Service - Accredited organisations. PROJECT ENVIRONMENT The project will take place in Sevnica, small post industrial town with a high level of unemployment and emigration of young educated people.
Between people xenophobia is expended between population, because of regular encounters with foreigners from other European countries which are mostly immigrant workers. There is a lack of tendencies or measures for intercultural dialogue. Tourism is only in development. At the moment organisation doesn't have their own place to perform the activities. However all the programme has been realised mainly in the hired halls or offices, youth centre Sevnica, Sport hall Sevnica, Castle Sevnica or Cafe in the castle.
