Ecumenical Volunteer Programme

Moved - Inspired - Enriched

The close connection between Christian witness and serving the neighbour is basic to the work of EMS. One way in which this conviction is put into practice is the Ecumenical Youth Volunteer Programme (EVP).

The EVP arranges placements for young volunteers in:

• North-South Exchange
• South-North Exchange
• South-South Exchange

Do you want to get to know the worldwide church and pass on this experience? The Ecumenical Youth Volunteer Programme will make it possible!

Ecumenical learning takes place in relations and in solidarity-based action. Churches and organisations of the EMS Fellowship admit young volunteers. They work in schools, homes and kindergartens. Through the EVP they get to know churches and cultures in other countries, contribute their experiences to congregational work and further develop their personality.
