Jau trešo gadu festivāls “Sansusī” realizē Eiropas Solidaritātes korpusa (ESK) programmas starptautisku projektu, kas aicina dažādus jauniešus no Eiropas Savienības un apkārtējām valstīm uz brīvprātīgā darba programmu, kuras laikā ir iespēja iesaistīties “Sansusī” kultūras aktivitātēs, veicinot dalībnieku personīgo izaugsmi un sabiedrisko līdzdalību.
Līdz šim projektā jau piedalījušies 35 jaunieši no 10 valstīm. Šogad aktīvi darbojas vasaras grupas 12 dalībnieki, savukārt jau no 2023. gada rudens līdz 2024. gada rudenim “Sansusī” ir uzņēmis divus jauniešus no Francijas un Itālijas ilgtermiņa brīvprātīgajā darbā.
Pēdējos divus gadus projektiem ir ESK kvalitātes zīme, kas nozīmē, ka plānojam uzņemt ikgadu 12-18 brīvprātīgos līdz pat 2027.gadam. Vairāk par ESK kvalitātes zīmi vari lasīt Jaunatnes Starptautisko programmu aģentrūras mājaslapā.
For the past three years, the “Sansusī” festival has been implementing an international project of the European Solidarity Corps (ESC) program, inviting various young people from the European Union and neighboring countries to participate in a volunteering program. Participants have the opportunity to engage in cultural activities at “Sansusī,” promoting personal growth and civic participation.
So far, the project has involved 35 young people from 10 countries. This year, a summer group of 12 participants is actively involved, and from autumn 2023 to autumn 2024, “Sansusī” has hosted two young people from France and Italy for long-term volunteer work.
For the last two years, the projects have received the ESC Quality Label, indicating that there are plans to host 12-18 volunteers annually until 2027. You can find more information about the ESC Quality Label on the website of the National Agency for International Youth Programmes.

Brīvprātīgie stāsta par piedzīvoto :
Mūsu vasaras ESK brīvprātīgie ir ieradušies, un šeit ir ieskats no viņu pirmās nedēļas:
Pirmā nedēļa Susējā!!!
Mēs esam divpadsmit brīvprātīgie no Itālijas, Spānijas, Turcijas un Čehijas.
Savas pirmās dienas mēs sākām kopā, nodarbojoties ar komandas veidošanu un nedaudz fizisko darbu, labiekārtojot mūsu telpu! Tāpat mēs nodarbojāmies ar tādām aktivitātēm kā gleznošana, mācījāmies kurt ugunskuru, darbojāmies balss darbnīcā un pat paši rīkojām savas darbnīcas, piemēram, jogas un meditācijas nodarbības.
Visbeidzot, nedēļu noslēdzām ar velobraucienu un atpūtu pie netālu esošā ezera.
Redzēsim, kas notiks nākamnedēļ!
Volunteers tell about their experience:
Our Summer ESC volunteers have arrived and here is first glimpse from their first week:
First week in Suseja!!!
We are twelve volunteers from Italy, Spain, Turkey and the Czech Republic.
We began our first days together doing team building and some physical work improving our space! Also we did activities such as painting, learning to make a bonfire with marshmallows, voice workshop and we even did our own workshops such as yoga and meditation sessions.
Finally, we finished the week with some cycling trips and relaxing at a lake nearby.
Let’s see what happens next week!

Mūsu brīvprātīgie jaunieši Susējā sākuši savu trešo nedēļu:
Kad mēs pirmo reizi ieradāmies, mēs nezinājām, ko sagaidīt. Tad sākās visas aktivitātes, mēs sapazināmies un saliedējāmies. Tā mēs kļuvām par brīvprātīgajiem.
Otrās nedēļas laikā sākām veidot savus mākslinieciskos projektus, saņēmām koučingu un koordinatoru atbalstu to uzlabošanai; mēs uzlabojām attiecības, kļūstot par draugiem, un mēs sākām labāk iepazīt viens otra kultūru. Nedēļas nogalē notika Talka – iepazinām vairāk Latvijas kultūru un Sansusī komandu. Vakarā piedzīvojām apbrīnojamu koncertu ar akcentu uz ukraiņu tautas mūziku un apmeklējām Aknīstes Zaļumballi. Vēlāk kopā skatījāmies Eiropas futbola finālspēli.
Mēs baudām Susējas brīnišķīgo dabu un satriecošos saulrietus. Tiekamies!
Our ESC volunteer-team has started their third week with us. Here is what they say about last one:
When we first arrived, we didn’t know what to expect. But then, all the activities began. They turned us into a group, by helping us to know each other better and create our own dynamic for the next few weeks. We became volunteers.
The second week was also full of activities: during the week we started planning our own artistic projects, we received coaching and support from coordinators to improve them; we improved our relationship by becoming friends and we started to get to know each other’s culture better. During the weekend, the Talka happened!
Because of this event, we got to know Latvia’s culture a bit more, and so we did with the Sansusi team. We attended a Slavic concert with an accent on Ukrainian folk music, which was amazing. And after all this, we visited the yearly Akniste Ball (Zaļumballe) and met some of the locals. Also, this weekend was the European Football final game, which we watched all together.
Besides all the activities that are going on, we are enjoying Akniste’s amazing nature and stunning sunsets. Here you can check some pics of our experience so far. See you next week!
