Conservation Volunteers Greece is one of the oldest voluntary Greek associations. It has been involved in the EVS project since the pilot phase in 1997 and has organized since several projects in the majority of the actions that the youth programme has presented in the past years. The involvement in the EVS is a natural evolution of the main field of work of CVG that are the international voluntary workcamps, though the international network Alliance (of European voluntary Service Organization).
In the EVS, CVG is a very active organization both in sending and coordinating activities. At the moment, CVG has proposed and coordinates in parallel 2 hosting projects (Lehaina, 2006-GR-06 & Horse Therapy, 2006-GR19); it is sending an average of 18 Greek volunteers per year abroad. A large part of the volunteers that take part in the EVS projects were previously involved in the association. In the last period, CVG is developing the sector for disadvantaged volunteers, joining more than one working group on inclusion at international level.
