Participant profile
You’re animated about interculturality, citizenship and sharing your experiences? You wish to enhance your skills and talents while organizing fun activities and workshop for youth? If you’re enthusiastic, dynamic, autonomous and eager to learn from different cultures and to meet young people from a rural area, this mission is for you! We value motivation, teamwork, and the ability to collaborate with others. Good social skills, being open-minded and respectful are essential to interact with young people in an informal setting. Public speaking skills are important as you’ll be talking to young people and the public. Knowledge of French is not mandatory, you will learn !
Important : you will be part of a team of approximately 10 people, but you will be the only volunteer for that project. It is important that you feel confortable with that.
In the first weeks of your volunteering, Lakdar and Josselin will present you to the different associations of Vierzon (sports, music, creativity...depending on what interests you !) so that you can meet new people and create connections !
