About the project

ESC: Short term volunteering in Grand-Est

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Solidarités Jeunesses (SJ) is a national movement of non-formal education and is composed of a National Secretary (Paris), and eight regional delegations across France. Our delegations host international volunteers throughout the year. Each regional delegation is unique, but all of the activities organized benefit the local community and share common ground: - gather people from different culture and social background to participate in social, ecological and cultural development. - contribute to the integration of people with fewer opportunities. Each project is dedicated to actions of solidarity and collective living. We believe that cultural exchanges are a key for personal learning and for the volunteer to experiment and undergo personal development.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The project is located in Belmont, a small village in north east of France near Strasbourg (50 km away). It is in the historical and cultural area of Alsace, close to German and Switzerland borders. The volunteers will sleep in a hosting center in Fouday (a town near Belmont), in dormitories of 4-6 persons in non-mixity. It is important to commit into daily life (meal preparations mostly vegetarian/vegan, courses, compost, etc.). The place has a limited Internet connection (a few hour per day). The nearest train station is in Fouday.

🎒 Leisure activities

You will work about 35 hours per week. The main purpose is to learn to work together in a multicultural context. The mission would be to: - inform about international solidarity and discriminations specifically through collective animation of intercultural events and activities - share the everyday life of the locals - take care of the hosting center (cleaning, socializing, etc.) You can read the complete infosheet on our website: https://www.solidaritesjeunesses.org/volunteeringinfrance

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).
