European voluntary service project ''YOUTH PLATFORM'': 2nd International expedition

At the end of August, we told you about the “International Expedition in the Rezekne Region”, in the Makonkaln parish, which was organized by the volunteers of the youth society Jaunatnes Čemodāns - Jesus from Spain and Robert from Armenia. International Expedition is dedicated to the centenary of Latvia, and its goal is to develop and maintain the activity and initiative of young people. All those who wanted to participate, depending on their interests, were divided into five working groups. One group developed expedition plans and routes. Another group collecting and processing photo and video materials. The third group is responsible for food, and the fourth for health, safety, and all related activities. The task of another group is to develop a program of activities, search partners for cooperation and maintain a good mood among the children.

Last Saturday, on October 6, took place the second “International Expedition” , during which we explored Grishkan volost.

On a sunny Saturday morning, we firstly went to a meeting with the youth affairs specialist of the Grishkan volost Igor Isupov and directly with the youth itself.
