Info

  • For who?
    Meetingpoint.evs is the ex-EVS network for Flemish people. However, our activities are open to foreign EVS people (and friends) as well! Be welcome!
  • By who?
    Meetingpoint.evs is run by volunteers, who are all ex-EVS.
  • How often?
    We organise activities from 4 to 6 times a year.
  • Why?
    We want to offer several opportunities to EVS volunteers to get together in an informal way, to meet up and share experiences and stories (both Belgian ex-EVS and actual non-Belgian EVS people).
  • How expensive?
    It’s low budget, because we know we are dealing with volunteers/students… We try to keep costs as democratic as possible, maximum of € 3,00 (depending on the activity).
  • What do we not do?
    We don’t spam, and we don’t do political statements. We don’t phone your host organisation to tell them about your alcohol behaviour neither. ;-)
  • What do we do?
    We have fun! We visit a city, go for a ride, have a drink, talk, … We exchange experiences!
  • How it started
    Meetingpoint.evs began in 2000 when some enthusiastic ex-EVS people started to organise activities to keep in touch with eachother and to share experiences.
  • Advantages
    You get to know people from abroad who are doing their EVS in Flanders. You will be updated about other EVS-events. You get tips and tricks about Belgium, feel the international spirit, … and get in touch with the local community and learn about the habits in Flanders.
  • Who is in the group
    A lot of people who don’t know each other. EVS projects and people often just come once or twice, so you come into a group that is not a closed club of friends, but rather a welcoming, sparkling, interesting chat amalgam.
