🏢 About the local organisation
La MAISON DE L’EUROPE DE NÎMES est une association à but non lucratif créée en 1966 avec pour mission d’informer les citoyens sur l’histoire, les réalisations et l’avenir de l’Union européenne. En s’appuyant sur ses réseaux européens, elle crée des actions pédagogiques et des événements pour sensibiliser le grand public, notamment les jeunes, aux défis et enjeux de l’Union européenne et à la construction européenne. La Maison de l’Europe de Nîmes facilite également le montage d'événements européens par les entreprises, les collectivités territoriales ou les associations en les conseillant dans le montage de projet. Enfin, elle favorise la rencontre et la coopération entre les citoyens, les associations, les collectivités territoriales et les entreprises des pays européens.
La Maison de l’Europe de Nîmes est soutenue financièrement par l’Union européenne, le Ministère français des Affaires européennes, et des collectivités territoriales de la Région Occitanie. Depuis 2013, la Maison de l’Europe de Nîmes est labellisée Centre d’Information Europe Direct par la Commission Européenne et ce label vient d'être renouvelé jusqu'en 2020. L’association est accréditée depuis juillet 2014 pour l’envoi, l’accueil et la coordination de jeunes âgés de 17 à 30 ans en Service Volontaire Européen (SVE) dans le cadre du programme Erasmus+ et maintenant dans le cadre du Corps Européen de Solidarité. L’équipe de la Maison de l'Europe de Nîmes est composée de 3 permanents et d'un service civique. Etant association, la Maison de l'Europe de Nîmes compte actuellement environ 200 membres dont une dizaine s'applique activement dans les projets européens et la vie associative. L’équipe est résolument européenne, venant de plusieurs pays européens et non-européens et maîtrisant plusieurs langues aisément.
💼 What the programme involves
The Europe House in Nîmes – Europe Direct Centre would like to host 1 volunteer for a project of 10 months in Nîmes, a south-east city of France. The volunteer will be involved 50% of the time in activities at a high school in the centre of Nîmes and 50% of the time at the Europe House. The aim of the project is to encourage pupils, students, teachers and staff at the lycée to be more open-minded about Europe and to be more mobile. As part of the educational service, the activities will involve creating and running workshops for young people using non-formal learning methods and helping to organise outgoing mobility.
• supporting the International Relations Department in communication/administration tasks such as making contact with foreign partners and preparing for student mobility
• supporting the teaching of European languages using non-formal learning methods
• supporting the public relations by implementing supports (flyers, posters) and posting on social medias
🏠 Accommodation on site
The volunteer will be accommodated in a shared flat in the city with his/her own room, close to shops and the city centre.
The volunteer will receive a daily allowance of €8 for pocket money and €10 for food. Travel costs will be covered according to the distance calculated by the ESC programme.
The volunteer will work between 30 and 35 hours a week, Monday to Friday, from 8.00am to 5.00pm, with a lunch break of 1 to 2 hours (subject to activity).
🎒 Leisure activities
The volunteer will have the opportunity to attend the on-arrival training and the mid-term evaluation organized by the French National Agency.
Furthermore, there will be several possibilities to take part to other trainings during the year according to the offers and the interest of the volunteer.
⚠️ Requirements
The Participant profile: The Europe House expects the volunteers to have a desire to share their knowledge and enthusiasm for intercultural dialogue and intercultural learning with the public. European information and awareness are more credible if they are transmitted by young people from other European countries who believe in the European Union and who have a strong motivation to participate in the programs that are proposed, as well as learning foreign languages.
Candidates should have basic knowledge in French to understand and be understood and knowledge in English. The ability to speak Spanish would be an added value.
Their motivation, their capacity to bring enthusiasm during their intervention, especially for the youngsters, and their understanding of the pedagogy and the contact will be important criteria.

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).
