SOLIDARITES JEUNESSES MCP

Sem&Vol Solidarités Jeunesses Aquitaine

Cause de Clérans, France

Description

Solidarités Jeunesses (SJ) is a national movement of non-formal education and is composed of a National Secretary based in Paris, and eight regional delegations across France. Our delegations host volunteers from France and all over the world throughout the year. Each regional delegation is unique, but all of the activities organized benefit the local community and share common ground: - to gather people from different culture and social background to participate in social, ecological and cultural development on the local level . - To contribute to the integration of people with fewer opportunities. Each project is dedicated to actions of solidarity and collective living. We believe that cultural exchanges are a key for personal Learning and offers to the volunteer a valuable opportunity to learn, to experiment and to undergo personal development.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

Sem&Vol is located in Cause de Clérans, in DORDOGNE, in the green center of France. Sem&Vol was founded in 2013 in the village of Le Buisson de Cadouin, for its first international project. The village is a small village of 300 inhabitants and is welcoming with volunteers. As a volunteer you will share a house with other volunteers! It is of high importance to commit into daily life, as in a big house-share, because the house will look like its inhabitants, it's your home sweet home for a few months!
