ICYE
This project is aimed at promoting and organising worldwide long term voluntary service. It also helps to provide a new kind of intercultural learning experience for young people, encouraging social and occupational integration, and supporting the development of local community projects in education, youth work, teaching, health education, environment, etc. This exchange programme targets young people who are willing to volunteer in Nigeria between a period of six months to1year. It requires the interest of the individual to seek funding for the duration of stay (travel, accommodation, feeding).

ICYE STePs
In addition to the long-term exchange programmes, ICYE Nigeria receives on various types of short-term exchange activities for interested individuals and groups. Such activities include group study visits, Short Term Exchange Programme (STePs) in the field of cultural heritage, environment and health education, as well as language courses and cultural studies.

European Voluntary Service
Since 1996, ICYE has been directly involved in both the international and national level launch and implementation of the European Voluntary Service (EVS) programme. The programme aims at promoting youth mobility and international voluntary service among European youths. The ICYE Nigeria exchange programme targets only European youths who are willing to volunteer in Nigeria between a period of 6 months to1year. It is a programme funded 100% by the European Commission (EC). EVS provides a new kind of intercultural learning experience for young people, encouraging social and occupational integration, and supporting the development of local community projects in education, youth work, teaching, health education, environment, etc.

Weltwart
In a world in which global responsibilities and international cooperation are becoming increasingly important, more and more young people in Germany want to attend schools or trainings for a voluntary service in the developing countries.  ICYE Nigeria is involved in the implementation of the Weltwarts programme. Weltwarts, which is majorly funded by the Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development in Germany, (BMZ) is carried out in collaboration with ICJA (ICYE Germany). Welwarts aim to produce mutual understanding, respect and tolerance. Joint working and learning, knows neither rascism nor exclusion. Weltwarts volunteers learn with others to help disadvantaged people and take responsibility for sustainable development, with openness, joy and curiosity. Weltwart volunteers go out into the world and go back with their wealth of experience into Germany.
