Together with other hostel organizations we are creating possibilities for our volunteers and staff for increasing their skills and competences on the international level.

HI Slovenia is also a part of international HI Connect programme for volunteer and staff exchange. Our volunteers help us with administrative work, managing social media, they write articles, promote our organization and so much more. We are very proud of our volunteer programme, which we upgraded in 2016. We try to show travelling as a way of non-formal learning to gain more experiences for the future life. HI Slovenia is a leading organisation stimulating youth mobility through youth travel and youth hostels.

»To promote the education of all young people of all nations, but especially young people of limited means, by encouraging in them a greater knowledge, love and care of the countryside and an appreciation of the cultural values of towns and cities in all parts of the world, and to provide hostels or other accommodation in which there shall be no distinctions of race, nationality, colour, religion, sex, class or political opinions and thereby to develop a better understanding of their fellow men, both at home and abroad.« Hostels are very different but all of them work with young people and for share the HI mission: HI Slovenia is based in Maribor where it has its main office and has more than 30 Youth Hostels spread all over Slovenia. HI Hostels are in some of the world's most inspiring locations and meet assured standards, which guarantee a range of a good quality and a safe accommodation in friendly surroundings at affordable prices. Our head organisation, Hostelling International (HI), with more than 3.7 million members, has 4000 hostels in 80 countries all over the world.
