🔷 Activity Details
Description
Because Europe feels more real when you meet it in person! Your presence turns mobility from an abstract idea into something tangible for students, often from modest backgrounds. You'll reassure those leaving for their Erasmus+ internship, spark cultural curiosity, and embody the diversity the school wants students to experience.
7 key missions
- Personal project on European mobility or Spanish culture
- Erasmus+ preparation: language, culture, confidence
- Classroom involvement: English, French, vocational practice
- Cultural activities: cooking, games, dance, presentations
- Internal communication: social media, project visibility
- European events: Erasmus Days, Europe Day, themed days
- Joint ESC projects with the Maison de l'Europe network
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
You'll live in Le Mans, in a shared house with other ESC volunteers — everything provided, and a ready-made international crew to explore France with! A bus card covers your daily commute. On school days you can eat at the canteen; for other meals you'll receive food money.
Training during the activity
You'll start with an onboarding training with the Maison de l'Europe and your volunteer group, plus the official on-arrival and mid-term ESC seminars.
