About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Join Serve the City Paris, a dynamic NGO in the heart of Paris, working with marginalized groups: homeless individuals, asylum seekers, refugees, and young migrants. The main goal of this volunteering mission is to learn French in a practical, meaningful context, while developing your autonomy, flexibility, and sense of social commitment. You’ll be immersed in a real “mini United Nations”, with over 60 different nationalities represented, you will therefore be required to communicate in both French and English throughout your stay. This multicultural context will challenge and enrich you with tolerance, adaptability, active listening, and interpersonal communication, all within a collaborative and non-hierarchical atmosphere.

🏠 Accommodation on site

🎒 Leisure activities

You will take part in a welcome training and a mid-term training with the national agency of the European Solidarity Corps, which will enable you to meet other volunteers and help you make the most of your volunteering experience.

You'll also have access to numerous profiles of young people and skilled professionals to nourish your own future path.

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).
