Trex-Evs association was created in 2007 with the aim of providing common space for Turkish Ex-EVS volunteers. The association is based in İzmir city of Turkey which is the 3rd biggest metropolitan in Turkey. We mainly focus on activities designed for youth mobility, inclusion of disadvantaged, democracy and youth mobility. As we are the most active on voluntary activities and mainly EVS since the very beginning of YIA programme, we continue to coordinate projects through Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps. Our basic mission is to be an information supplier between ex and future European volunteers and to help passing on the gained experiences, observations to the following volunteers by organizing various meetings and projects. Additionally, we want to promote the idea of taking initiative to young people and be active citizens in society.
