France: TRANSITION ECOLOGIQUE - ESC
About the local hosting organizationJeunesse et Reconstruction (JR) is a French association created in 1948. Originally, JR organized projects to gather young European volunteers in order to rebuild the ties between formerly enemy peoples. Today, the main objective is to foster intercultural exchanges through volunteering in a spirit of tolerance, respect and fraternity. JR participates in the development of international youth exchanges through its activities. It is about giving young people from different cultures the opportunity to meet in an unfamiliar environment in contact with the local population. They can discover their differences and commonalities, learn to live and work together to a general interest project. JR offers various volunteering programs (short, mid and long term) through its network of partners.
Presentation of the programmeYou will work with an available and present tutor, who will guide you through your missions. You will have the time to discover our organization, its functioning and its activities in order to get a better socio-linguistic integration. During the 1st part of the mission, you will conduct a practices analysis: observing our way to work, our constraints and will be able to interrogate our employees and active members. You will make research about the topic of environmental protection, including political measures about ecological transition. You will help us write a guide for good practices within our organization, to give simple tools to reduce our ecological print. In the 2nd part of your mission, you will work on the dissemination of your results and solutions: you will intervene during our information session, during our camp leaders training but also, on different workcamp sites: you will be directly in contact with the volunteer groups and local communities who welcome them.
