About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Description: The Lycée Christian Bourquin is located in Argelès sur mer in the south of France. We are looking for a European volunteer to support our policy of international openness. The school participates in the Erasmus+ programme and sends young people across Europe. The European volunteer will be able to take part in activities focusing on European citizenship, communication on social networks and support for young people preparing to go on an Erasmus+ mobility trip. The school has an International Relations Office, which is responsible for organising and managing the school's European outreach policy. There are 6 people working in this department. The European volunteer will work with these 6 people on a daily basis. They will have their own office and will also be able to develop projects to promote the EU. In addition, French teachers will be able to help the volunteer learn the language if necessary.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The school will provide accommodation on site if the European volunteer so wishes. Otherwise, as Argelès sur mer is a tourist resort, there is plenty of accommodation available outside the summer period. For meals, the school has an excellent canteen which is open morning, noon and evening at attractive prices. There is also a very large supermarket right next to the school. For transport, the bus network is very close to the lycée, as is a railway station. It is also possible to provide a bicycle for the volunteer period.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volunteers will be able to take French language training if they so wish. We have teachers at the lycée who specialise in teaching French to non-French speakers. It will also be possible to take a first aid course. As we are a school, we can adapt to volunteers' requests for specific training. We can also help the volunteer to learn all the usual office activities.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for a motivated volunteer who can work with pupils and students aged between 14 and 22. We are looking for someone who is dynamic and deeply committed to European citizenship and the values of Europe. Someone who is capable of organising activities independently and who can contribute new ideas so that we can learn from each other. Speaking a little French would be a good thing, but not a requirement. We're looking for someone who knows how to use simple IT tools (Excel, Word, Canva) and social networks.
Deadline: Application deadline: 31/08/2023

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).
