Together with twelve other partner organisations, Fundación Tres Culturas participates in the project Empowering Young Volunteers through Sport (EYVOL), a transnational and multisectoral cooperation initiative co-financed by the European Union within the Erasmus + programme.

Coordinated by The International Olympic Truce Foundation (IOTC) and promoted by Save The Dream, it is made up of other partners from the Mediterranean Basin who are working to develop and implement educational innovations and methods to train young volunteers on how to use sport to promote intercultural dialogue, peace and socio-economic development.

The main objectives of EYVOL are:

- To promote greater civic participation of young people by developing sport volunteering for social inclusion through the attractiveness of sport activities.
- To collect and disseminate at international level good practices on the use of sport as a tool for social transformation with an intercultural approach for equality, peace and conflict resolution
- To promote sport volunteering as a way to develop young people's skills also with a view to future employment.
- To provide training action plans on social development through sport.
- To analyse existing policy and practical conditions and make policy recommendations to promote sport volunteering at international, regional and national levels.

This programme was announced at the United Nations headquarters in November 2018 during the 8th Global Forum of the UN Alliance of Civilizations, which was attended by the Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres. This project will provide different young people with concrete educational actions and tools that promote sports volunteering at an international level.
