About the project

ESC: Discover Luxembourg 2.0

📝 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. The SNJ is also in charge of the volunteering program in Luxembourg. The main focus of this project is inclusion. In collaboration with associations which work and host people with mental and physical disabilities, the volunteers will get an insight of the everyday life in those institutions and also have to organise activities for them. Another aim of this project is getting to know Luxembourg and discovering our shared European values through artistic activities. Through creating art, participants are invited to leave a trace of them in Luxembourg and also to visualise how connected we are, even though we come from different cultures.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will be accommodated in different Youth hostels, in shared rooms. During the project, the venue will change three times, which allows you to discover Luxembourg even more. Most days, three meals a day will be provided, for the other days, 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.

⚠️ 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/participants should be motivated to invest their time, knowledge and competences in the foreseen project. In short, the requested competences/skills : creativity, autonomy and basic English skills.
Deadline: Application deadline: 30/04/2024

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).
