Cooking connects Europe #2 - La Cocotte Solidaire
Maison de l'Europe à Nantes
La Cocotte Solidaire
Nantes, França
Descrição
La Cocotte Solidaire is a community-driven organisation fostering social inclusion and solidarity through communal cooking and shared meals. As a neighbourhood canteen, we provide a welcoming space for people of diverse backgrounds to cook and enjoy meals prepared with organic, locally sourced ingredients — serving up to 40 individuals per session, always alongside our beneficiaries.
We are looking for motivated volunteers from October to July to support our mission of building community, promoting sustainability and strengthening social connections. Working in a rich intercultural setting, volunteers will use food as a powerful tool for inclusion. Their missions will include organising community meals with diverse groups, supporting food waste reduction and composting in line with the SDGs, taking part in workshops on sustainable food, and contributing to local events and initiatives that promote both inclusion and environmental awareness.
