🏢 About the local organisation

La MAISON DE L’EUROPE DE NÎMES est une association à but non lucratif créée en 1966 avec pour mission d’informer les citoyens sur l’histoire, les réalisations et l’avenir de l’Union européenne. En s’appuyant sur ses réseaux européens, elle crée des actions pédagogiques et des événements pour sensibiliser le grand public, notamment les jeunes, aux défis et enjeux de l’Union européenne et à la construction européenne. La Maison de l’Europe de Nîmes facilite également le montage d'événements européens par les entreprises, les collectivités territoriales ou les associations en les conseillant dans le montage de projet. Enfin, elle favorise la rencontre et la coopération entre les citoyens, les associations, les collectivités territoriales et les entreprises des pays européens. La Maison de l’Europe de Nîmes est soutenue financièrement par l’Union européenne, le Ministère français des Affaires européennes, et des collectivités territoriales de la Région Occitanie. Depuis 2013, la Maison de l’Europe de Nîmes est labellisée Centre d’Information Europe Direct par la Commission Européenne et ce label vient d'être renouvelé jusqu'en 2020. L’association est accréditée depuis juillet 2014 pour l’envoi, l’accueil et la coordination de jeunes âgés de 17 à 30 ans en Service Volontaire Européen (SVE) dans le cadre du programme Erasmus+ et maintenant dans le cadre du Corps Européen de Solidarité. L’équipe de la Maison de l'Europe de Nîmes est composée de 3 permanents et d'un service civique. Etant association, la Maison de l'Europe de Nîmes compte actuellement environ 200 membres dont une dizaine s'applique activement dans les projets européens et la vie associative. L’équipe est résolument européenne, venant de plusieurs pays européens et non-européens et maîtrisant plusieurs langues aisément.

💼 What the programme involves

The House of Europe of Nîmes is a non-profit organisation promoting European citizenship and international mobility. It supports young people, especially with fewer opportunities, through Erasmus+ projects to develop skills, autonomy and intercultural awareness. The team organises events and workshops to raise awareness about European opportunities. We wish to host 2 volunteers to bring an intercultural dimension to our projects and encourage European exchange. Their presence helps energise activities, bring new ideas and create a strong connection with young people. It is also a mutual learning experience, where everyone grows in a supportive and engaged environment. Volunteers take part in recruiting participants of the internships Erasmus+, leading workshops (interculturality, EU citizenship, conflict management), and preparing Erasmus+ mobilities. They co-lead language sessions in English, support participants before and during their internships, and contribute to communication.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers work 30–32 hours per week, Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm, with shorter Fridays (9 am to 1 pm). Some activities may take place in the evening or occasionally on weekends (events, workshops), with time off in compensation. The schedule may vary depending on projects. The volunteer will undertake a 12-month volunteer placement from September to August in Nîmes. They will be housed in a shared apartment with other volunteers and will have their own room.

🎒 Leisure activities

The volunteer will have the opportunity to participate in an arrival seminar and a mid-term seminar organized by the Agency. They will benefit from the team's support to learn how to carry out the required activities throughout their volunteer placement and will also receive training in facilitation with the Maison de l'Europe in Nîmes during their integration.

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).
