The Interreg Volunteer Youth (IVY) initiative is currently preparing for its next phase. The current programme period will conclude on 30 June 2025, with expectations for a renewal starting 1 July 2025.

Please note, however, that the continuation of IVY beyond June 2025 is not yet confirmed. We will share concrete information regarding the future of the initiative as soon as it becomes available. We encourage all host organisations to stay informed through our website and newsletters.

Due to IVY volunteering experiences requiring a minimum duration of two months, host organisations should note that the latest possible start date for hosting a volunteer under the current programme is 1 May 2025. Organisations are advised to allow a few additional days prior to this date for administrative preparations.

Any volunteer placements unable to begin by 1 May will need to wait until the anticipated renewal. Should IVY be successfully extended, new hosting opportunities are expected to resume starting from July or August 2025.

For any further information or questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at ivy@aebr.eu.
