About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

In the interests of European openness, the MFR has for more than 15 years been offering young people studying in Bac Pro the opportunity to complete 4-week internships abroad. As a result, they better measure the notion of European citizenship through these immersive experiences. In order to raise awareness among all students of European citizenship, to bring students to communicate with a European person on a daily basis, if possible, in English, to familiarize them with a young person who is undertaking European mobility, the MFR has made the choice to welcome a European volunteer throughout the school year. The more students are aware of European mobility, the more they will volunteer to undertake mobility as part of their schooling or even afterwards as an ESC volunteer, for example. After 7 consecutive years of welcoming a volunteer, the MFR is convinced of the benefit of welcoming a volunteer with whom the students enjoy discussing.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will have your own room in a shared house near the center of Le Mans, with easy access to local transportation for your daily commute. Common spaces are shared with other volunteers and collective life is to be expected and encouraged. If you’d rather live alone or stay in you room all year long, this project isn’t for you. You will get each month money for your food, and pocket money, transferred in your bank account at the end of the month you have just done. Pocket money is 240€/month, and food money is either 210€/month + lunch offered at the school canteen on workdays or 240€/month.

🎒 Leisure activities

The French ESC Agency organizes 2 seminars (one on arrival and one mid-term for about a week, with other ESC volunteers in France). All expenses are fully covered. You will have access to the EU Academy platform for online French classes, and you will have the possibility to take part in French classes at the beginning of your volunteering in the Maison de l’Europe.

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).
