Projekt przewiduje różne działania, wiele z nich w dziedzinie młodzieży i polityki na rzecz młodzieży, ale nie tylko. ProAtlantico współpracuje z kilkoma organizacjami społecznymi: szkoły, domy seniora, organizacje zajmujące się imigrantami, centra młodzieżowe, ośrodki dzienne, instytucje dla osób niepełnosprawnych. Wolontariusz będzie współpracował bezpośrednio z grupami docelowymi organizacji partnerskich.
Dla tych którzy mimo przeczytania ogłoszenia nadal się zastanawiają czy się zgłosić, może relacja poprzednich wolontariuszek przekona ich, że warto: „Nie czekaj na lato, bo może cię ominąć coś dobrego” – relacja z EVS w ProAtlantico
