Description

The European Solidarity Corps programme finances volunteering (including humanitarian aid) and solidary activities open to 18-30 (35 for Humanitarian aid volunteering) year old people who legally reside in a EU Member State or in a third country associated to the Programme (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Turkey and Republic of North Macedonia) and who have registered in the European Solidarity Corps PortalThe programme implements the following operational actions:

  • Volunteering projects
  • Solidarity projects
  • Volunteering in humanitarian aid operations

The Mobility tab in the continuous reporting for this programme manages the:

  • Volunteers' personal information (Volunteers)
  • Mobility declarations for the periods funded for volunteers

(warning) The mobility declaration is part of both continuous and periodic reporting.

Note that the Project Officers do not ‘accept’ or ‘reject’ the Mobility Declaration: they can only reopen it (the consortium can't reopen a submitted declaration). See "Important note" below for more information.  

Important note

If the technical part or the financial statement of the Final Periodic Report is locked, changes to the mobility declaration will no longer be possible!

Also, if the Final Periodic Report is open for the current project and the Financial Statement for the Coordinator or the Technical Part have no longer a DRAFT status, then a Mobility Declaration: 

  • can't be submitted
  • can't be reopened by the Project Officer 
  • can't be updated 

volunteer information can't be reopened by the Project Officer for updates if any of the Mobility Declarations linked to this volunteer can't be reopened.

The Mobility tab is divided in two different tables:

  2. Mobility declaration: here you can add the mobility declarations for the volunteers

1.Volunteers

In order to avoid re-entering multiple times the personal information about the same person, the Volunteers table has been implemented.

The table contains the personal information of each volunteer and states whether a mobility declaration has already been submitted or not (or regardless the status of MD).

The same volunteer can be assigned to different volunteering periods in the context of the same project.

The personal data of a volunteer can only be modified if no Mobility Declaration has been submitted.
