🏢 About the local organisation

La Fédération Départementale des Maisons des Jeunes et de la Culture des Côtes d’Armor (FDMJC 22) est une association qui fédère 4 MJC locales. La FDMJC est associée à la Fédération Régionale des MJC (FRMJC), elle-même affiliée à la CMJCF. La FRMJC rassemble vingt-neuf MJC sur les départements du Finistère, de l’Ille et Vilaine, des Côtes d’Armor sur la région Bretagne et en Pays de Loire sur les départements de Loire Atlantique, Sarthe et Maine et Loire. Aujourd’hui, les deux réseaux historiques des MJC travaillent à une convergence, qui permettra la création unique d’un seul réseau des MJC au niveau national. Ce réseau de professionnel·les et bénévoles est une richesse et un appui pour l’équipe de la fédération. Les salarié·es de la FDMJC et de la FRMJC forment une seule et même équipe. L'équipe professionnelle est composée d’une directrice, d’un chargé de mission sur l’accompagnement des directions sur les Ressources Humaines, responsable de la formation DESJEPS, d’une coordinatrice de réseau et responsable d’une formation DEJEPS, d’une coordinatrice en charge de la jeunesse de l’animation de réseau, des outils pédagogiques et de la formation bénévole, d’une coordinatrice en charge de l’animation de réseau et de l’international, d’un animateur en alternance, d’une coordinatrice administrative, d’une responsable financière. À l’équipe de salarié·es, s’ajoute l'équipe bénévole composée des administrateur·rices des MJC. L’organigramme de la structure se trouve en pièce jointe. C’est dans ce cadre, que la FDMJC anime et coordonne le volet international avec les MJC bretonnes : sur l’organisation de séjours, d’échanges de jeunes, l’accueil et l’envoi de volontaires dans le cadre du Corps Européen de Solidarité et l’échange de pratiques professionnelles. Avec l’ensemble de l’équipe pédagogique, elle participe aussi à l’animation des collectifs des professionnel·les, animateur·rices , coordinateur·rices, directeur·rices et bénévoles du réseau des MJC.

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).
