The document discusses the European Voluntary Service (EVS), which is an unpaid volunteer program for individuals ages 18 to 30 within Action 2 of the Youth in Action program. The EVS allows volunteers to do full-time work on various projects in a European country for 2 to 12 months. Volunteers receive accommodations, food, pocket money, travel expenses, and language training. The Red Española Voluntarios Europeos (REVE) aims to improve and support the EVS through activities like answering inquiries, providing resources and evaluations, and holding internal meetings in various Spanish cities.
