The project represented an opportunity to carry out a structured learning activity, by participating in Erasmus+ courses, for 11 volunteers from the "Oncosuport" center within the "Phoenix" Post-Secondary Institute association. In the short and medium term, in the period 2020-2022, the "Phoenix" Post-Secondary Institute association has proposed to carry out international cooperation activities in order to continue and develop and diversify the activities of the Oncosuport center, intended for people diagnosed with cancer and their relatives. The project represented an opportunity for increasing the number of volunteers in the Oncosupport center and diversifying their specialization. Unfortunately, the situation generated by the Covid pandemic during 2020-2022 did not allow the number of beneficiaries of the center to increase.
