About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

« Music Fund » is a non-profit association based in Belgium with an expertise centre in Marche en Famenne, a town located in the French part of Belgium. It aims to promote music as an instrument to develop social projects for young people, mostly in conflict zones and developing countries, with the slogan “Give music a chance”. Web: http://musicfund.eu/about/history-philosophy/ Supported by an expert organization (CBB), it will be the fourth time that Music Fund welcomes an ESC volunteer. The volunteer will have the opportunity to participate in all the activities taking place in the atelier and in the warehouse: administrative and cultural. Also, the volunteer will be greatly encouraged to create a personal project inside the organisation with the great support of the Music Fund. The goal is to help the association in their daily tasks (in the atelier and warehouse), share their activities with the general public and help with event organisation.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will have a private room in a fully-equipped shared house in the city of Marche en Famenne, with other ESC volunteers. Food: the volunteer will receive a budget and will take care of the meals by themself. Participation in the European Solidarity Corps is free of charge for the participant, except for exceptional contribution to travel costs. Freeboard and lodging + pocket money.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteer will participate in on-arrival and mid-term seminars organized by the French-speaking National Agency of Belgium. The volunteer will have the opportunity to accompany students while fixing the instruments. While not being training as such, they will benefit from it. Training about how to store safely instruments is embedded into this activity.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We expect the volunteer to be very motivated to join the activity, to be open-minded, creative and proactive.

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).
