Solidarités Jeunesses est un mouvement composé de 8 associations indépendantes (délégations régionales) qui, à partir d’objectifs fixés en commun, expriment au niveau régional la dynamique nationale du mouvement. Tous partagent une même vision politique de la société, de valeurs d’éducation populaire et d’interculturalité. Dans son ensemble, le mouvement compte plus de 1.200 membres, dont 300 sont investis dans les actions à travers l’année. Solidarités Jeunesses emploie à peu près 50 salariés permanents. A travers ses actions, Solidarités Jeunesses cherche à promouvoir une société de justice, de paix et de solidarités. Sem&Vol Solidarités Jeunesses Aquitaine est une des 8 délégations du mouvement Solidarités Jeunesses. Association indépendante, nous avons pour projet de créer du lien entre des personnes de tous horizons par le faire ensemble et le vivre ensemble.

Au travers de ces actions nous luttons contre les différentes formes de violences, d’injustices et d’oppressions, soutenant tous ceux et celles qui veulent prendre en main leur histoire pour organiser collectivement une société responsable et libre. Sem&Vol Solidarités Jeunesses Aquitaine se fixe comme objectifs : - La participation volontaire de tous, entre autre des jeunes et particulièrement les jeunes défavorisés. Cette participation volontaire s’entend aussi bien dans la vie sociale locale que nationale et internationale. - La participation au développement de la vie locale quand il est soucieux de l’individu, de l’environnement, du patrimoine culturel. - La rencontre et le décloisonnement inter-culturel, inter-générationnel et international. - La construction concrète de la paix. L'association compte plus de 200 membres participants à nos actions, dont une trentaine investis tout au long de l'année temps dans la gouvernance que la mise en place concrète d'action et de temps d'échanges. Nous employons actuellement 2 salariés à l'année et des renforts ponctuels sur les temps de saison.

💼 What the programme involves

Solidarités Jeunesses (SJ) is a national movement of non-formal education and is composed of a National Secretary based in Paris, and eight regional delegations across France. Our delegations host volunteers from France and all over the world throughout the year. Each regional delegation is unique, but all of the activities organized benefit the local community and share common ground: - to gather people from different culture and social background to participate in social, ecological and cultural development on the local level . - To contribute to the integration of people with fewer opportunities. Each project is dedicated to actions of solidarity and collective living. We believe that cultural exchanges are a key for personal Learning and offers to the volunteer a valuable opportunity to learn, to experiment and to undergo personal development.

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).
