EUSA INTERNATIONAL


VOLUNTEER PROGRAMME


Through the work of EUSA Student Commission, the Organising Committees of EUSA


events, and with the support from the International University Sports Federation


(FISU), EUSA was able to offer students from around Europe a unique opportunity to


participate as part of the organisation of EUSA events as international EUSA volunteers.


Throughout the summer of
2019, international volunteers
were present across the 21
EUSA European Universities
Championships, assisting the
local organising teams and the
local volunteers. The main aim
of the volunteer programme
is to give students who are
interested in sports and in
organising sport events the
chance to experience a unique
adventure, to meet new people
from different countries,
learning about the values of
sport, and gain valuable work
experience through volunteering.


The programme includes
working areas within in the
fields of media, communication,
transport, accommodation and
of course in sports venues, all
the while assisting organisers,
referees, and the participants
themselves. All this in the
context of an international sport
event, where the volunteers are
able to network and improve
their future opportunities
through like-minded people
as well as having an enjoyable
time! All volunteers have to
organise themselves is their
travel to and from the official

airport/station of the event.
From there, local organisers will
provide internal transport, full
accommodation, and meals for
the duration of the event, and
along with having an amazing
time at the event, the organisers
will provide them with a
certificate indicating the working
position and hours.

We are once again looking for
local, national, and international
volunteers. Interested
participants are encouraged to
register their interest via the
European Universities Games

official webpage. If you are
unsure about applying, we urge
you to check out EUSA Insider
on https://www.eusa.eu/media/
eusa-insider where you can hear
about the student experiences
from the international volunteer
programme.
