💼 What the programme involves
Familles Rurales (France) is recruiting European volunteers from September to December 2024. Volunteers will work with 2 main target groups:
- Young people from 11 to 17 years old living in rural areas, hosted in youth centres, near Angers
- Learners of professional trainings for becoming animators. These trainings are delivered by us. Most learners are betweeen 20 and 25 years old.
Volunteers will:
- Support the youth centres in their activities with the teenagers. Volunteers will be encouraged to propose new activities for developing young people interest in the EU and in other cultures.
- Animate recreational activities in English and/or in your language (English lunch, basic words in your language, etc.)
- Promote the ESC programme by participating in communication events creating communication material, supporting young people in their research of ESC missions.

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).
What do we provide ?
Before applying for this volunteering project, you need to enroll yourself at European Solidarity Corps Platform (https://europa.eu/youth/solidarity_en) and specify your European Solidarity Corps Participant Number (PRN).
This organisation holds a European Solidarity Corps Quality Label.
