About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The project is located in the heart of Suisse-Normande, a popular region for nature sports enthusiasts (kayak, bike, horse riding, paragliding, etc.). The mission is presented as an awareness of the discovery and challenges of Europe. It revolves around three towns: Clécy, Cesny-les-Sources, and Thury-Harcourt. Several partners gravitate around this project such as: twinning committees, elementary schools, middle school Europe Clubs, youth /children structures for collective animation, tourist office, and retirement home. A Europe Day is planned at the end of the school year. This public event will include a number of workshops and events over a week. It will be an opportunity to highlight the project and the actions that the volunteer will have carried out with different audiences throughout the year. During the summer, we organise a french-german youth exchange and twinning meetings. The volunteer will be part of their organization.

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).
