Context
Rise in Quality focuses on supporting the development of new knowledge and competencies of youth workers and is contributing to quality and innovation in youth work. When thinking of youth work, promoting quality and innovation comes with recognising the support organisations need, to then establish programmes suitable for international volunteers.
International volunteers bring a unique perspective, creative thinking, and energy into organisations. International volunteering promotes new skills, innovation, and European values. International volunteers are also hoping to personally grow during their experience.
In order to best facilitate this growth, organisations need to be equipped with tools that are practical and simple to implement. Rise in Quality recognises that many non-governmental organisations working with international volunteers are often faced with limitations due to a lack of finance, staff, time for educations/workshops, or reading best practices for supporting volunteers. Yet, when working with young people organisations are not ready to compromise the quality of support they provide.
