About the project

ESC: Ambassadors of European and Olympic values

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Within the Maison de l'Europe Bordeaux-Aquitaine (MEBA), we defend the idea that the European spirit is forged from simple daily actions that give an identity to EU policies. It has been already 8 years the MEBA is carrying out the project of ‘Ambassadors' launched on the occasion of the Euro 2016, aiming to contribute to creation of a better and more peaceful environment through solidarity, team spirit, joy and optimism. Olympic Games taking place in 2024, this is your last chance to become also an ambassador of Olympic values and spread both through: educational workshops at schools, linguistic cafés, radio shows, organization of cultural evenings, presentation of European countries, their culture, heritage, languages and politics, creation of social media contents, participation at big events organized by the city, promotion of inclusion and solidarity in sports/para-sports. *DUE TO NON-MIXED HOUSING RULES, THIS POSITION IS OPEN ONLY TO FEMALE CANDIDATES*

🏠 Accommodation on site

Your future flat is situated at a student residence in the neighbourhood of La Bastide in Bordeaux. The flat is shared by two, each of you having your own private room. The living-room with kitchen and bathroom are shared, mutual respect is therefore required from both flatmates. Your monthly allowance is 420€, laundry is not included, but the local transport card is provided as well as access to the OLS platform to improve your FR language skills. You'll be part of a group of 16 volunteers, so in case of difficulty, you'll always have someone to count on! :)

🎒 Leisure activities

As every other volunteer, you will participate at the on-arrival and midterm seminaries organised by the French National Agency. Our project has already started, but we'll provide you with all the necessary time and assistance to fully join our team as quickly as possible. At MEBA, every week is different based on the type of activities you are assigned to. Our timetable is rather dynamic, but that's why you can just hardly get bored! We work in a serious, professional yet honest, transparent and friendly atmosphere. Our motto is to have fun and enjoy every aspect of our stay in Bordeaux.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We're looking for someone who's not afraid to CREATE and CONDUCT educational workshops for CHILDREN and YOUTH. To say a word or two on the RADIO? Yes, that'll be one of your tasks... and teaching the public your beautiful native LANGUAGE as well! Having a POSITIVE attitude (not only) towards some SPORT practice is an advantage! You need to be FLEXIBLE & ADAPTABLE as our timetable changes based on needs of our partners. But most IMPORTANTLY, we're looking for a MOTIVATED & RESPECTFUL people with a knowledge of FRENCH, as this is our working language. Do you meet ALL the criteria? APPLY :)

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
