📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

ATD Quart Monde is an international human rights movement that fights against poverty and social exclusion. Our aim is the eradication of poverty which we try to achieve through a human-rights based approach. We work for a society where nobody is left behind and where everyone has a place. Consequently, our main target group includes people affected by poverty and social exclusion, as well as people who sympathise with them and fight side by side and for a fair world. Our actions include in particular group activities in the form of public actions, creative workshops for youth and adults (e.g. creative workshops, work with wood, writing workshops, handicraft projects, participation in a video project), Fourth World People's University (exchanges, discussions and presentations to the public) and cultural activities (e.g. theater, events, parks, trips, celebration of 17th october, etc.)

💼 What the programme involves

The movement Atd Fourth World fights for human rights, with the aim to ensure access of the poorest to exercise their rights and to advance towards eradication of the extreme poverty. This willingness to develop the contacts between young and old people from all social classes, and firstly with the young people living in poverty and social exclusion, is always the center of the interests of Atd Fourth Wolrd. We expect the volunteer to contribute to our activities – to come up with new ideas for potential projects and activities for our youth group, to work on existing projects as well as to contribute to creating new ones. He may also do small work in the secretariat. Furthermore, we expect our team, the activities and the youth group to gain from the presence of the volunteer by getting inputs from them. A multidimensional performance (dance, theater, music, painting, writing ...) is scheduled for November 2024. This project will also be accompanied by the voluntary service.

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).
