About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Europe is looking forward to your contribution! Help to develop the cultural openness of young pupils and students from rural areas and participate in their learning of citizenship and tolerance. Support their curiosity on intercultural aspects and encourage them to discover Europe! Become a volunteer in 14 different places. Every volunteer opportunity is about making Europe more concret in rural areas in France. You can volunteer in our House of Europe, in boarding schools, social centers and in town halls.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteer will be accommodated in Le Mans, with the other volunteers taking part in this project. They will live in a house next to the train station in Le Mans, not far from the city center. Each volunteer will have his own room in this big house, and they will all share the common parts like the kitchen e.g. There is a garden, the house is fully furnished, and was renovated last year. Accommodation and transportation fees are under the responsibility of the host organization. Money will be given to the volunteer every month to cover food expenses, as such as pocket money.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteers will participate in the arrival and mid-term meetings. One of the challenges of this project is to bring Europe in rural areas toward pupils that have no knowledge at all about Europe and its country, therefore, the transports issue is important and all applicants must have a driving license.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Living in the EU, being motivated, between 18 and 30 years old, driving license required, interested in youth work, education, europe and intercultural topics, willing to learn french. Candidates should be motivated, ready to work in a team, flexible, creative, open-minded, pro-active, dynamic, communicative, and interested in working with teenagers. Once you have sent your application via this platform, we will send you an application form with more details about the 14 opportunities and ask you to fill it out and to make a video presenting yourself. Later on a zoom call will be organized.
Deadline: Application deadline: 15/04/2023

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).
