About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

You will be part of a youth group (16-25yo) with french volunteers, mostly working in pairs, for a project called Précarité (Précarité Alimentarie et Précarité Énergétique). On Mondays, you will have time for personal or administrative tasks and appointments (e.g. medical appointments). From Tuesday to Friday you will be working on the Précarité project. The target group are mostly people in insicure situations (e.g. refugees, children, teenagers, etc). The project has two objectives: the first one is the fight against food precariousness and also the sensibilisation about healthy eating; the second is the fight against the energy precariousness by doing sensibilisation of eco-actions and existing rights through public support. Concrete actions will be: -Helping with the distribution of food -Helping to organize caritative events -Animating workshops to raise awareness about the key-topics -Creating educative games.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteer will share the flat with 3 other European volunteers in different Unis-Cité projects and he/she will have his/her own room. The flat is in Saint-Etienne. It is equipped with a fridge, a stove, a washing machine, a microwave and internet. The money will be given at the beginning of each month for the purchase of food in addition of pocket money. And he/she will have an unlimited transit pass to move in Saint-Etienne.

🎒 Leisure activities

Between October and December the volunteers will have 2 hours of french classes per week. The volunteer will participate to the on-arrival and midterm training organized by National Agency. All project long, the volunteer will participate to different trainings, as SDG's training, as Education for Citizenship and International Solidarity's training, etc... For this project especially the volunteer will have trainings about the animation of groups, animation of games, preparation and distribution of meals, and eco-actions.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Our project is deliberately general so that the volunteer can appropriate, adapt it to his own person, bring his ideas and flourish fully. It is crucial that the volunteer is interested in working with different groups of people, but also in teamwork. The volunteer will be immersed with a team of professional and will have to participate or even animate a group of people. He must be open-minded and adaptable.
Deadline: Application deadline: 31/07/2023

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).
