Resumo: Since its creation in 1975, the primary objective of the association is to encourage local development in the rural area. That is why this project was developed together with the local population and is based on locals' resources and needs. The aim is to encourage inhabitants to take an active part in the improvement of their life conditions, development of education, culture, reinforcement of solidarity, prevention and reduction of social exclusion.

The social center is therefore a multi-purpose place open for all, where everyone can find activities and services in the most varied fields: social, cultural and educational as well as health, entertainment, information, etc. Viva Sioule promotes, creates and manages all the activities and services in cooperation with young people, their families and other inhabitants.

Today, the organisation is working on the territory of 18 municipalities in the rural area and its surroundings. The association is part of the national and regional network of social and socio- cultural centers of France.

For many years, the Social Center has led various Youth projects, including Youth Exchanges. Some young people are also involved in projects reinforcing cooperation with African countries. To support and enhance these activities, the association Viva Sioule has expressed a will to host European volunteers (ESC).

- Promote active citizenship and civic engagement among young people;
- Encourage a sense of initiative and youth empowerment;
- Raise awareness regarding intercultural issues;

This is why the volunteer will take an active part in the various activities carried out by the social center and also in actions for youth organised by the Community of Municipalities. After a period of integration, the social center expects the volunteer to be more specifically in charge of:

- Accompanying youngsters involved in projects concerning international cooperation: take part in meeting, facilitate and monitor youth projects;
- Supporting the preparation of European youth exchanges: present projects, mobilise groups of young people, define the project and its program, prepare youngsters for the intercultural experience and then help through facilitation, evaluation and dissemination of results;
- Assisting the staff and the participants in hosting projects during the school vacations;
- Participating to other activities organised by the social center;

Moreover, within this ESC the volunteer can suggest his/her own ideas or project after consulting with the team, elected representatives and other beneficiaries. That is why the detailed activities will be defined by both the volunteer and the team according to the volunteer's skills and interests. A timetable will also be defined together in accordance to the activities period.

Horário: The volunteer will work from Monday to Friday, approx. 30 hours per week. There may be periods where he/she has to work more (during youth exchange, etc.). Also, the volunteer may be asked to work during evenings or weekends if needed.
However, all the time when the volunteer works more hours, he/she will be able to take extra days off. Except regular days off (Saturday and Sunday), the volunteer is allowed to take 20 days of vacation spread out during the 10 months of the project.

Condições: Accommodation will be provided. The flat is situated right above the main offices of the social center. The volunteer will have his/her own bedroom, living room and bathroom.
During the working days, the kitchen may be shared with other employers. The flat is well equipped and furnished to ensure a comfortable stay. This accommodation is located at the centre. All house services and Internet fees are 100% covered.

In addition, the volunteer will receive money for food (7.5€ per day) and pocket money (6€ per day) according to ESC funding rules. The volunteer has to cook for him/herself.

The volunteer will be individually followed by a dedicated mentor and a referent person inside the team of the social center for daily management.

Travel expenses from the volunteer's city to the project's place will be reimbursed within a maximum limit based on the amount defined by the ERASMUS+ program (ex. 275€ for a travel between 500 and 1999km / 180€ if less / 360€ if more).
