Profilul participantului
This mission requires a strong interest in social interaction, community-building, and teamwork. La Petite Cantine is a participatory, inclusive community restaurant where volunteers, neighbors, and guests cook and eat together. Because of this unique environment, the mission involves daily contact with a wide variety of people, including individuals experiencing social or economic vulnerability, loneliness, or disabilities. A caring and respectful attitude is essential. The rhythm of the mission can vary. During busy cooking and service periods, the atmosphere can be fast-paced and sometimes stressful. Volunteers need to feel comfortable working in a dynamic environment, supporting the team, and communicating clearly with guests and staff. • You speak a bit of French ? (minimum B1 level) • You are resident in a EU country • Available for 10 months from September 2026. This mission is open to 2 volunteers as a pair.
