📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

We are migration_miteinander, we implement different offers on local level for young people with and without refugee backgrounds: 1) Open consultation hour for labour market integration 2) Different activities to bring together young people with(out) refugee backgrounds and to promote exchange and mutual support via an intercultural tandem project and through the organization of group activities. 3) Conferences, trainings and workshops We want to merge all these activities in the Moveurope! Community Center and create a physical space not only to host the above mentioned activities. We will design additional offers such as food-based activities (cooking work shops, culinary events) and create spaces for self-empowerment and for mutual learning. As a volunteer of the MECC you will support the already ongoing activities and will launch and be part of the operational team of the MECC.

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).
