This project is composed of a volunteering team, supported by the European Solidarity Corps program of the European Union. Compared to the usual workcamp participation scheme, some main financial and administrative differences must be underlined: - The participation to the ESC volunteering teams is subjected to several principles and conditions, presented on the ESC webpage: https://europa.eu/youth/solidarity/mission_en - The volunteers do not have to pay any fees (not sending, nor participation fee) to attend the project - The volunteers will receive pocket money, calculated on a 4€/day basis, once they arrive in the project in Belgium - The volunteers will receive a financial support for their travel : 180€ for a travel between 100 and 499 km 275€ for a travel between 499 and 1999km 360€ for a travel between 2000 and 2999km 530€ for a travel between 3000 and 3999km - The volunteers need to register on the European Solidarity Corps Portal ; CBB will organize their the matching with the correct project in the online system. - The volunteers will have to complete a participation report, submitted online in through ESC portal. We warn the volunteers that the consumption of alcohol is strictly forbidden inside the centre. Volunteers must be sensitive and aware of the great diversity of the audience that the centre welcomes, in terms of age, nationalities, lifestyle, life stories, but also great cultural differences. Residents also live in the "the uncertainty of tomorrow" and can experience significant stress. The meetings that the volunteers are going to lead there can provoke certain feelings in residents and volunteers must have this in mind in order to deal with it and ask for help. The centre draws the attention of the volunteers to the importance of keeping a "professional distance" with residents (this can avoid conflicts), as well as of respecting the internal rules. We warn the volunteers that the consumption of alcohol is strictly forbidden inside the centre. This project seeks volunteers with a good level of motivation for its theme and those who are prepared to integrate in the life of an asylum seekers center. We recommend them to already have an idea about the policy concerning refugees in their country. In order to demonstrate this, we ask the candidate volunteers to: - send a short motivation letter - answer our specific questionnaire (if you do not have it yet, please ask your sending organization for it). - send us a certificate of good conduct We will not confirm any placement requests before analyzing the submitted forms.
