How to find your EVS project and your host organisation?

The principle is the same as a job search.
From the database of accredited organisations, list also mentioned in the article "Sending and Host organisations", you need to send your application to organisations and projects that you prefer.

The search tool will guide your choice by :
- the country,
- the city,
- the type of accreditation : here, you must select "Host Organisation"
- theme such as art and culture, disability, environment, health....



Then, you obtain a list of organisations and it is time to read every description ^^



Each project is identified by a reference number. In the example below, this number is "2013-RO-4".
The project description is composed of five parts :
- Summary of the project
"Approval Date" and "Validity Date" refers to the period during which the organisation has been accredited to host volunteers.
- Project environment
Information on volunteer's missions, housing conditions, ....
- Motivation and EVS experience
Why the organisation wants to host volunteers.
- Description of the organisation
Where it is located, what its mission is.....
- Contact point
To contact the organisation and send your CV and cover letter.
