About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Lycée Leo Lagrange welcomes 1,000 students preparing for general, vocational or technological bachelor's degree. Our main goal is to teach them tolerance, respect and to offer them a wide range of projects to open their mind to culture and to the world. The 2 ESC volunteers will help students discover their culture, offer group activities with the help of the librarian or teachers, accompany students on school outings and discover the Hauts-de-France region. They will have the opportunity to develop their personal project in collaboration with the school. Their mission will be to help raise awareness of sustainable development by : - supporting students in organizing awareness-raising activities (with the vegetable garden and the beehives) - preparing a guide eco-frriendly practices, - helping them to produce a video for the "Eco-friendly representatives prize", - taking part in special theme days like - raising awareness of gender equality and other high school projects.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in BULLY LES MINES, in a furnished studio (33 m2 kitchenette, elevator, laundry facilities) in a residential care home for senior citizens. You will be asked to volunteer for 3 hours per month with the elderly, depending on your skills. The aim is to encourage intergenerational cooperation. Lunches can be taken at the school canteen from Monday to Friday, and will be financed by the high school. The food allowance will still be paid in full by Concordia, the LEAD organisation. An electric bike and laptop computer will be provided during the mission.

🎒 Leisure activities

You will benefit from French language lessons (in addition to the EU acamedy platform) and personal time to develop your project. You will be given SST (first aid) training and other opportunities. As part of the ESC program, the French National Agency will organize 2 seminars for you. The 1rst one called arrival training and the second one mid-term training.

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).
