🏢 About the local organisation
Le REV is 1 of the eighth projects of Solidarités Jeunesses France.
Founded in 1974 in Beauvoisin in the Gard, the REV for « Réseau d\'Entraide Volontaire » became a regional delegation of Solidarités Jeunesses in 1979.
The REV used to have its main activity in Gard and temporary activities in Lozère.
Since 2020, the association is in full mutation and is in the process of settling in Lozère and have the main activity in this area.
The 2022 project is about setting the project.
We have a big building in Lozère, at Finiels, and in the next years it will be our base camp. The new site will includes a main building where the activities will be held, one chalet to host long term volunteers and one to host permanent staff. The place is surrounded by fields and forest. It‘s a very isolated place, the next village is 7km far away, with some first necessity shops.
💼 What the programme involves
This means that you and the team you will be part of are the pioneer of this new settlement. The main building is a former summer hosting center. It needs to be almost fully refurbished.
Your tasks will be on 3 axis :
1- To start the refurbishing of the building
2-To start to create link with local population and organizations by being involved in events, meetings and taking part to local project. Even by being proactive in the proposal of new project that will enhance the link with the local community.
3- Run the classic activities of the REV during summer : hosting groups, lead international workcamps (from some weeks to some months).
REV\'s project is really diverse, in one year of volunteering you will participate to various projects and actions. The main goals of the Project are to meet one another, to create a constructive dynamic, as well to break stereotypes, and stigmas by working together and living collectively.
