🏠 Accommodation on site
The volunteer will be accommodated in the house of Concordia, next to the office of the association, with 4 other volunteers. The volunteers will have to adopt a collective life which means cook and eat together, propose activities in group and participate to the associative events that we organize once a month in the house of the volunteers. There is few public transport in this area, it is possible to find bicycles and the volunteer will have access to the car of the association to go to work and to do some shopping for the house.
🎒 Leisure activities
We encourage volunteers to develop a personal project besides their initial missions with the support of the team. To facilitate his/her integration we propose a ‘French Foreign langage professor’ and also different trainings like “a good communication for a better cooperation” that help volunteers to express themselves about their experience and also to enrich it by methods from non-formal education.
