Description de l’activité
The center is located 25km from Brussels and can host up to 220 residents including 40 unaccompanied minors. There are different kinds of services which are offered to the residents, among them: social support, medical service, reception, school support and leisure time activities. Volunteers will integrate the service of leisure activities, whose aims are, on the one side, to support children and teenagers in their schooling and, on the other, to organize leisure time activities, mainly in the social and cultural field, for the residents. Some activities in the neighborhood are also carried out, whose aim is to raise awareness in the local community about asylum seekers. Volunteers will work with children and with adults.Modalités d'hébergement, de restauration et de transport
The two volunteers will share a flat of 4 people in Wavre. They will share a kitchen/living room area as well as a bathroom but each of them will have their own bedroom. They will get a travelcard allowing them to access the closest cities (Ottiginies, Louvain-la-Neuve, Wavre) & Brussels, located at about 30km from Rixensart. Volunteers will receive a monthly allowance for food & pocket money.Formation pendant l’activité
