About the project

ESC: Discover Luxembourg - Luxembourg discovers you

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The "Service National de la Jeunesse (SNJ)" (National Youth Service) is a state agency subordinate to the Ministry of Education, Children and Youth. The SNJ's tasks include contributing to the creation of the legal framework, organising educational programmes for children and young people, supporting young people in their transition to active life. Within the SNJ, our offices in charge of the National volunteering program are located in 4 different regions: North, East, South and West. Each region has his products and places which it is known for. The goal is, to discover each region, its characteristics and people, partly on your own, partly through planned activities together with local volunteers. Of course, you will be invited to share your culture too. Additionally, the participants will be part of a small inclusive project of two days, called "Action painting", which consists in designing art, together with a group of people with disabilities.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Most of the time, the volunteers, together with their mentor, will be accommodated, in the castle of Hollenfels (https://erliewen.snj.lu/hollenfels/). The volunteers will sleep in shared rooms. Also, be prepared to do some hopping around the hostels and lodges in order to maximize your experience. So there will be a lot of moving around. Three meals a day will be provided or the volunteers will receive a food allowance. Public transport is free of charge in Luxembourg.

🎒 Leisure activities

The first 3 days after the volunteer’s arrival are dedicated to an on-arrival training (OAT). This training will prepare the team as good as possible for the upcoming challenges. During that training, the social workers who organised this project will also be present. During the entire time of the project, there will always be somebody who can be contacted. Only applications sent to the following e-mail address will be considered: [email protected] . Applications sent through the platform, will not be seen.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: The participants must have a basic level of English and should be autonomous enough to live on their own for most of the time. Candidates should be motivated to invest their time, knowledge and competences in the foreseen project. They should be open to sharing and to working with other volunteers in a team. Plus, they should be aware that within the four weeks, there will be a lot of moving around. In short, the requested competences/skills : creativity, flexibility, autonomy and basic English skills.
Deadline: Application deadline: 15/05/2023

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).
