Project
Proposed activities
Information actions about Europe and international mobility, dedicated to young people.
The activities can be progressive. The volunteer always will be allowed to make suggestions.
Some easy tasks, that don’t request a lot of experience, may be proposed at the beginning:
• Dissemination of the Europe Direct pedagogical resources (leaflets, exhibitions, games): registering loans, updating the online catalogue, preparing the orders.
• Creation of “home-made” pedagogical materials with our staff (games, activities). The volunteer will be asked to help in creating it. If he is interested in it, he could also imagine and create new personalized tools!
• Public events (festivals, fairs): we present public games and communication activities about Europe with adults and children. The volunteer will be welcome to help us make our stand alive and attractive!
Further activities (depending on the volunteer’s independence, linguistic ability, and interest) which can be personalized more easily and which let more place for initiatives:
• School visits: management of activities with pupils, or participation as a concrete example for European mobility describing to young people his/her mobility experience.
• Activities with children about his/her own culture and country. If he wants, he will be welcome to prepare some activities for children about it, and we will be pleased to help.
• Happenings at the hosting organisation reception: The volunteer will be asked to get involved in animating this place, proposing and organizing new happenings highlighting specific topics through exhibitions, meetings….
• Communication: website moderation, creation of communication tools (flyers, posters, leaflets). If the volunteer is interested in it, he will be encouraged to propose new contents or new designs.
• Events organization: Some big events organized by the association request the involvement of all of us (especially the summer job fair). The volunteer will be a great help in putting in place the event, and will help in prospecting job offers abroad. We could highlight his own country, dedicating him a special space.
• Writing tasks (depending on linguistic progress): radio programme, articles and interviews for the website.
This doesn’t avoid getting involved in the activities managed by other hosting organisation units. The volunteer weekly time dedicated to his personal project, related to the Europe Direct activities or not.
