Starting from April 2016, our writers moved their digital quills on the ESNblog! 

 

 

eXpress #19: Life at the Local Level

 

 

With over 440 sections and 13,500 volunteers, the local level is the foundation of ESN. Time and time again, our sections have shown ingenuity in organising exciting and innovative events, dedication in volunteering their time and energy, and sincerity in engaging with their universities and local communities. It only seems appropriate to bring the spotlight to where it all began, back to our sections at the local level.

Among other topics, you can find inside:

  • Local and national events in ESN countries
  • The core projects of ESN International in 2014: STORY, Mov'in Europe and SocialErasmus! 
  • ESN sections joining forces in the Section Cooperation: ESN Milano United, Belgium + Luxembourg and the Panathenian Team!

We hope you enjoy reading this magazine as much as we have enjoyed making it!

 

eXpress #18: Career of an ESNer

 

 

This issue focuses on employability and the professional career of young volunteers.

All that and a bit more:
