💼 What the programme involves

The high school Lycée Honoré Romane is situated in Embrun, in a village in the Alps mountains, You should be prepared to live in a rather rural area!

Some projects will be proposed to you in the fall but the objective would be that you can propose his participation in other missions of interest for you. It can be exhibitions, assistance in the design of plays, artistic activities, creation of musical groups...depending on your tastes or skills ! Your mission will allow you to make visites, outings or school trips in France. The high school will host another italian volunteer, and you will collaborate with him/her but you will be expected to help out the teacher with some activities (you will not teach!) linked with your language and culture, but also european opportunities for youth in general.

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).
