PROJECT
FINISHED
In this project we host the volunteer Natalia Anufrieva, come from Kiev, in our organization "MAPAR", which is a residence for young people (Habitat Jeunes / Foyer de Jeunes Travailleurs) based in Redon, France. In Mapar, we host all types of young people (we have around 140 places), who come in Redon to work, study, follow a placement, look for a job, ... As we are a social residence, we provide various services towards young people, including social support, evening activities, european exchanges service. We work on social mixity, as we believe that interact with different people is a way to developp young people's citizenship.The volunteer will be mainly involved in the evening activities with our residents, and will be a representant of our diversity. As Redon is a small town in a rural area, we do not have many occasions to meet with foreigners. The volunteer will be one of them, closed from our residents. Moreover, we have the chance to coordinate various EVS projects in the town of Redon, and to host from 7 to 10 volunteers at the time. The volunteer in Mapar will be a link between the other EVS volunteers and our residents, so that there are more interactions and possibilities to meet wetween all those young people from different backgrounds. Finally, we believe that hosting a volunteer is a real testimony of Europe, of "going abroad is possible", and this is one more chance to give the opportunity to our young residents to have a positive look above our borders.
