📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Le GIP de Limoges (groupement d'intérêt public) est une structure publique dédiée au portage de projets et adossée au Rectorat de Limoges. Dans le cadre de la création des régions académiques depuis 2021, le GIP de Limoges est devenu le GIP centralisateur des projets ERASMUS+ pour la région académique Nouvelle Aquitaine. A ce titre, il porte le projet CES LEAD au nom de la région académique.
La région académique Nouvelle-Aquitaine est composée de trois académies : Bordeaux, Limoges et Poitiers. La rectrice de la région académique Nouvelle-Aquitaine fixe les orientations stratégiques et assure la coordination des politiques éducatives de la région académique.
Ses missions principales sont :
- Accompagnement des établissements scolaires en leur fournissant des ressources pédagogiques, des outils pédagogiques, des formations pour les enseignants, ainsi que des conseils et un accompagnement dans le développement de leurs projets éducatifs
- Promotion de l'innovation pédagogique en soutenant la mise en place de nouvelles pratiques pédagogiques, ainsi que la mise en œuvre de projets éducatifs novateurs.
Les groupes cibles de la région académique Nouvelle-Aquitaine sont les élèves de tous les niveaux d'enseignement (de la maternelle au lycée et post-bac), les enseignants, les établissements scolaires, les parents d'élèves, ainsi que les partenaires institutionnels et économiques impliqués dans le domaine de l'éducation.

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 ?
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).
