Resumo: The hosting organization is located in the low alps and is nestled in the heart of mountains. Most of the houses date back to the 17th century, at a time when pastoral activities were thriving. Since the 1950’s, all the families had to left the countryside in search of better paying jobs. In 1960's, Villages has bought the hamlet of the hosting organization to start their project. Step by step, they began to host local and international persons, groups, to bring life in the hamlet.

The main goals of the Project are to meet one another, to create a constructive dynamic, as well to break stereotypes, and stigmas by working together and living collectively. Incline to “Education Populaire” which believes that everyone can teach and learn each other without formal educational ways. All the project in Vaunières is corresponding to below goals.

The project provides a stepping stone to people who are having difficulties integrating into society, single-moms, teenagers, immigrant families, etc. . The most common people we host are teenagers who lack direction in his/her life or teenagers with social, familial or psychological difficulties.
These people often just need time and a place for themselves. According to the description, Vaunières is trying to offer them time to think about their future, personal space and encourage them to participate in the workshops and help them to find balance in their lives. Depending on their needs and conditions, they could stay for a short term break or to develop themselves long term. With these tools, they could be better prepared for the jump back into society and work towards a better life.

- Hosting group
Part of the job is to host. We have 65 places for hosting groups (adults, disabled peoples, teenagers, children) anywhere from a day to a month. We host various type of group!
Usually social group are coming to live an experience with us. They work and share the collective life with us.
The team of long-term volunteers is here to welcome them, explained them the project, propose to them some activities or just sharing time together. Groups are really interested by the internationality of our project and they are coming to meet volunteers also! It could happen we rent the village for one week end for a giant roleplay, a wedding, etc.

- workshop/personal project
All work is in accordance with the aim of the hosting organization. Hence, each workshop makes village alive and build the project. Every resident is involved everyday in workshop : cooking, landscaping, project planning construction, garden, beer, chickens, cleaning, renovation etc. We decide as much as possible together what we have to do (by a technical meeting) and also we manage the collective life together and solve the problems (if there is) together in meeting.
Every morning, We have workshop like construction, gardening, cooking, cutting and splitting firewood and taking care of the chickens. It varies slightly day by day, but in the afternoon we continue to work. On Wednesday and Thursday we have meetings with permanent staff to talk about future workshops and collective life.
Long term volunteers can choose to have a personal project depending on what you want to learn, what you are interested in or what you can contribute. The village is open to improvements of
all types. Anything is possible. We hope that your personal project advances the values of Vaunières. We welcome new ideas.

- Food
We manage all aspects of the menu in house, cooking is one of daily workshops. Hence, everyone is involved at least a little bit in cooking and creating the menu. We organize café menu time that each resident can propose menu items for the upcoming week. You are encouraged to cook meals from your country or region!
We try to consume as many local vegetables and fruits as possible. According to the reflection of ideal life of the association, we try to eat better: less meat, local and seasonal ingredients (meat, vegetables, fruits) and we try to buy as much we can organic food.
Also we like to do homemade jam with what we picked (raspberry, plum, etc). And of course, we eat what is coming from our garden: salad, cabbage, tomato, etc.

- International Workcamp
We host international workcamp from spring to the end of summer. These camps normally consist of 6-8 international volunteers and 6-8 French people. It could be camp for adult or for teenager. During 2 or 3 weeks, they work together in one specifically project (isolating wall, building wood house, etc.), share collective
life and live under tents. They have to build their own organization with their workcamp leader and with the technical leader.
The long term volunteers of Vaunières are usually the workcamp leader of these international workcamp. It’s one of their missions.

- Summer Season
During summer season, you can meet many people in the organization.
Some of them are from the international workcamp and the others are from hosting groups. All group people and inhabitants are encouraged to mingle and get to know each other. We organize a special schedule for July and August. For example, we have barbecue evening, pizza night and we open tavern several night (it’s our bar). You are welcome to create your own special themed night.
It’s the best time of the year, between 60 and 100 persons are there from all over the world!

- Cultural Events
Big and small cultural events have happened in the organization. We would propose cultural events like international nights, game nights, movie night etc. During summer, we organize our own festival as well, we invite local bands, decorating the village.
These projects are managed entirely in house.
Adding, we organize international night with meals and dessert from other countries. We encourage you to bring some traditional recipes as well special sauce or condiment from your country to introduce and share with other people.
