Resumo: The hosting organization is a non-lucrative association for diffusion and promotion of culture. It aims to support international exchanges between people and cultures, as well as human and personal blooming of all its members. It has both a local dimension - as it is very well integrated in the regional associative environment - and an international dimension, as it has several European partners to collaborate with, in an intercultural and innovating purpose.

The association is located in a city of Lorraine region, in the North East of France. We are in the hearts of Europe, one-hour from Luxembourg, Germany and Belgium. Great part of the population is made of young people as the city has an important university.

In conformity with the objectives of EVS program, our project focuses on creating and developing exchanges, intercultural learning and also cooperation between volunteers, teams and the local community. Our association wish to integrate the volunteer in both the association activities and in local life through relationships with local associations and students groups to help him/her meet other young people and discover the French way of life. The volunteer takes part in the organisation of our short films festival and other French festivals, as well as different missions related to cinema and video. He/she is integrated in a team but keeps a certain grade of autonomy.

The volunteer will be involved in the following activities:
Film programming, technical assistance and films screenings
Participation in the organisation of a festival
Creation of cultural links with partners from his/her own country
Participation in administrative meetings
Coordination with partner associations

Perfil: The organization keeps all the mail from volunteers. Three month before the deadline a mail is sent to all the interested volunteer to see who is still interested in. A selection of more or less 10 volunteer is done. The following quality criterium are the most important : motivation, involvment of the sending organisation with the youngster, involvment of the sending organisation to create a partnership withing EVS programm or for other collaborations. After severals calls with the youngster and the sending organisation, the Europe working group will choose with young for wich tasks.

The most important criterion in the volunteer selection is his/her will to integrate a cultural association. The determinant criterion is the volunteer's motivation. The volunteer must be a dynamic person, who likes teamwork, and who is willing to discover a new culture and to share his own one. Besides this mission contains some technical aspects, mostly in sound and video fields. The volunteer must be able to learn new skills during his/her EVS. For all these reasons, it is very important for the volunteer to be open-minded and curious, without being a professional worker in the cultural field. His /her desire to work in group and to learn are the most important thing.

Our association wish to host several volunteers, at least two people at a time to favour integration. The volunteers, male and female regarding gender equality, all have the same statute but a different nationality. As a result the hosting project is a fully intercultural experience. Not only each volunteer has to face a French team, but also other young people (male/female, nationality...) which is boundto change his regards

Tarefas: The sending and hosting organizations enable the youths to be followed during all the steps of the project of departure of the youth.

And, the numerous reports with the tutor will be moments where to tell about her/his needs and expectations, and to evaluate the task already done and the one to come.

For each mission, the volunteer will have one person from the association to refere to, this person will be resourceful and will give the volunteer pieces of advice. His goal will be to direct the volunteer by enabling him/her to gradually become more free.

The volunteer will be working 30 hours a week, his/her schedule will have to be discussed with him/her according to his/her missions and personnal projects. This times included the work for the global project, presence during the screening organized during the year, and time to developpe personal project.
