FLAG (not) present in the Czech Republic


The Flag Tour was silently present in Prague, Czech Republic few times during the year.

At the end of October INEX-SDA hosted the Conference on Quality Standards and Evaluation Methods for International Youth Voluntary Services.
Even though the actual Flag was absent, over 40 NGO representatives, coordinators of government programs and experts from several European Union countries, Tanzania and Uganda could learn about the mission of the Flag Tour during the 3 days of the conference.
The main
objective of the conference was primarily sharing experiences, knowledge and experience in quality measurement and evaluation of international volunteer programs.
 

During the summer we have introduced the mission of Flag Tour and EYV 2011 at different workcamps in the Czech Republic during the workshops lead by our EVS volunteer Eva. Volunteers discussed about „The effects and goals of voluntary activity on individual or community at local and European level” and ended the workshop by painting the
flag that can generally represent their ideas about volunteering and its effects and goals. Didn’t they do a great job?
