💼 What the programme involves

SOS Faim is a professional cooperation and development NGO created in 1993 and supported by the Luxembourgish Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs. It aspires to a world without hunger by promoting a form of agriculture alternative to the dominant industrial model: more sustainable, resilient and solidary family farming. Part of its awareness-raising activities in Luxembourg, SOS Faim opened in November 2024 TERANGA - The House for Food Transition. This place aims to encourage meetings and exchanges around themes linked to the agri-food transition. Main tasks for the volunteer: - Participate in designing awareness-raising programs on agricultural and food issues - Implement activities around agricultural and food issues aimed at a young public - Conceive and create adapted and innovative educational material to foster awareness among a younger public - Participate in the development of the place - Support the communication of the project

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).
