On the way to 1000 IVY Volunteers: Join the #1000facesofIVY campaign

The Interreg Volunteer Youth (IVY) initiative is thrilled to announce that we are on the way to an extraordinary milestone: the deployment of our 1,000th volunteer! This ongoing journey highlights the incredible dedication and enthusiasm of the IVY community, showcasing the profound impact of our collective efforts on territorial cooperation across Europe and beyond.

To commemorate this exciting progress, we’re launching a participative campaign to celebrate the stories, memories, and contributions of everyone in our community—volunteers, mentors, IVY alumni, AEBR’s IVY Team and colleagues at the European Commission. This campaign will run on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn until we officially reach the deployment of volunteer number 1,000.

Here’s how you can join in and help us mark this milestone:
