Description

Associació Obre’t’ebre is a non-profit, youth association, established in 2005 by a group of ex-european volunteers and young volunteers, aiming to promote universal values like solidarity, tolerance, and respect, through local, regional and international projects and to cover the lack of training and counselling regarding promotion of social values, volunteering, interculturality or mobility.

To educate citizens to be socially active and aware of social needs;
To dynamize rural areas. Our general purpose is to prevent the lack of resources, especially for young people in rural areas;
The association obre’t’ebre was born to respond the need of work in these areas with cohesion and equal opportunities for children, young people and adults. This is the goal that drives obre’t’ebre to continue carrying out actions that support children and youth in the region.

Cooperation with local organizations in order to spread the value of volunteering: telling tales in IES Cristófol Despuig in Sant Jordi party, and the Library of Tortosa for the day of the mother tongue or the day of the poetry;
