Outputs, activities and results to achieve the VOLEAD’s goals, 58 qualified EU Aid Volunteers (12 senior, 46 junior) and online volunteers will be deployed in the participating HOs.

SO4’s technical and capacity building activities will result in enhanced capacities of partners and local organisations on promoting women and youth leadership in resilience building, and complying with EUAV standards.
