🇫🇷 ESC Volunteering in France ♻️ Sustainable Development at a Public Sports Facility 🏅

Description

The CREPS is a Center for Resources, Expertise, and Sports Performance. As a public institution for training in the fields of sports, youth, and popular education. Its two priority missions are supporting and training young high-level athletes by fostering the success of their dual sports and academic projects, and training future educators for careers in sports and community animation. As an ESC volunteer, you will support the CREPS team in developing and promoting sustainable practices throughout the organisation. Working closely with your two mentors, you will contribute to projects related to environmental awareness, waste reduction, clothing reuse, sustainable food, and the enhancement of shared community spaces such as the educational garden. The volunteering is in Reims, a city located 40 minutes from Paris by TGV, in the Champagne region. Do not hesitate to have a look on this welcoming guide: https://canva.link/23q7deh4zdu9geg

Training during the activity

During the mission of the volunteer, there will be two training formations. The first one is called the on-arrival training which is held for 5 days in one city of France. The second which is called midterm training which is 4 days in another city in the middle of the volunteering period.

Participant profile

The volunteer must be interested in the topics of sustainable development, training, and education. The volunteer will receive guidance but will also be encouraged to take the initiative during their assignment. The goal is to develop independence in carrying out assignments so that they can be expanded upon in the future.
