ESC: Youth & Mobility - Europe Ambassador

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

There are 7 Youth and Cultural centers (MJC) in Gaillac and Graulhet’s conurbation comittee. MJCAGG is already involved in the European Solidarity Corps programme and is hosting 3 volunteers from October 2020 to July 2021. The MJCs are affiliated to the Departmental Federation of Tarn, the Occitanie-Pyrénées Regional Federation and therefore to the Confederation at the national level. Gaillac and Graulhet's MJC (MJCAGG) focus their actions on 4 fields: ACTIVITY CLUBS - wellbeing, art, music, non formal learning, physical activity and leisure, open from young children to seniors CULTURAL ENTERTAINMENT - eclectic program, promotion of local artists, local, departmental, regional, national and international projects and events YOUTH ACTION - after school activities, extracurricular programs, camps, support for homework, and artistic practices, 2 youth Information Structures and 1 Eurodesk CREALAB - FabLab or digital third place, access to computers and digital machine tools, it is open to everyone and has many possibilities Gaillac and Graulhet’s conurbation comittee, experiences a strong disparity with QPV (Political Quarters of the City) and ZRR (Rural Areas to Revitalize). This diversity creates social, economic and/or geographic inequalities, especially among our youth, who remain the priority target of our organization. These societal challenges are fundamental and the MJCs try to reduce these inequalities, fight against discrimination, community withdrawal and isolation.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will live in a furnished apartment located in Graulhet. They will each have their own room. For daily journeys, volunteers can travel on foot, bike, with the "Lio" bus network, or if needed with a car provided for them. There is also a train station located in Lavaur (15 minutes' drive). Using the “pocket money” and “organizational support” packages as a basis, we calculated a sum to be paid each month to each volunteer. Thus, they will receive from 350€ every month to cover the costs of food, transport and pocket money. The rent will be paid directly by the MJC.

🎒 Leisure activities

The first volunteering week will be a job shadowing. This will help to avoid the isolation of volunteers, to discover the team and the missions of each. The tutor and the team will facilitate the integration and training of volunteers in the organisation. The tutor will provide them with personal and professional support, and will be their linguistic support, facilitating communication between volunteers and the team. The volunteers will learn French through OLS and with a French teacher once a week. Moreover, they will attend to arrival and mi-project traning by the French NA.
