About the project

ESC: European volunteer in a rural school in the French Jura — youth activities and intercultural life

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

MFR de Salins-les-Bains is a small non-profit vocational school in rural eastern France (Jura). Around 100 students aged 14 to 20 learn by alternating school terms with work placements, and half of them board on site from Monday to Friday.

🏠 Accommodation on site

As our European volunteer you will spend 30 hours a week bringing Europe into their daily life: co-running afternoon and evening activities in small groups (cooking, games, sport, a weekly "European cafe"), supporting teachers during language, geography and citizenship sessions, and sharing your own country, language and culture. You always work alongside a member of staff, never replacing a paid post and never supervising students on your own.

🎒 Leisure activities

One slot each week is yours: French lessons, work on your own project with your tutor, and training of your choice.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Accommodation: a single bedroom on site, with a bathroom shared on the same floor and a private lounge. Meals are provided by the school from Monday to Friday lunchtime; at weekends and during school holidays you cover your own meals and have free access to the boarding kitchen. Travel: your international travel is reimbursed in full on arrival and your tutor meets you at the station or the airport. A bicycle is available, local buses serve the town, and Mouchard station (10 km) connects to the main French cities.
Deadline: 09/10/2026 18:00

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).
What do we provide ?
  • Training before and after the project
  • Health insurance during your project
  • round-trip travel reimbursement
  • accommodation and food
  • pocket money
  • language course
  • Return Week-end
  • Youth Pass and SVI international Volunteer passport

Before applying for this volunteering project, you need to enroll yourself at European Solidarity Corps Platform (https://europa.eu/youth/solidarity_en) and specify your European Solidarity Corps Participant Number (PRN).
