Type of work

Depending on the needs of the farm, volunteers can either take part in the pedagogical project or work in the farm. Those who will work on the pedagogical project will supervise groups. Those who do manual work will work in the farm (feed animals, clean the barn…).
Volunteers must be aware that working in a farm can be very physical. It can be very tiring. Working with animals is a concrete job (feeding animals, cleaning the barn…) and not a romantic one (a cow is not a nice stuffed animal).
They will help adults who work on the site. Workers will teach them how to do the different tasks. The aim is that they slowly become more and more independent. Work schedule will depend on the moments.
In summer, there are sessions for children. During those sessions, children will have activities from 9 AM to 4 PM (Walking in the forest, taking care of the animals, making bread…). After 4 PM, it will be necessary to organize games, dinner, showers, night walks and breakfast.

Conditions

Volunteers must sleep in a tent during the summer.
They must bring their tent, their mattress… It is possible to sleep in a residential center. A contribution to the cost of food of 50 euros per week of 7 days is requested but it is negotiable (either the young people buy their own food or they can replace the staff at certain times in the reception of the accommodation providers to pay for their food), including accommodation.

The House for Volunteers (HfV) hosts the volunteers engaged in short or long term volunteering projects with other associations or local structures partners of PSI in the region of Occitanie. The HfV, social residence for volunteers, (Civic Services, EVS, VSI, etc.) will have rooms and apartments to cater for their needs.

During this project, you will have the opportunity to take part in a number of activities. Every volunteer will participate in each activity according to a rotating system. So you will be able to engage in all the association’s “services” for a week. At the end
of your observation and after a short discussion with your supervisor, the team members and the other volunteers, you will choose the activity of your choice.

Every volunteer can find a field that will really interest him/her. We are aware that sometimes the project’s description and the reality can be approached differently depending on each individual. This is why we hope that all volunteers will be able to observe and take part to the activities and areas represented in
the association for a few days.

Therefore, communication is essential. We want volunteers to fully engage in this experience and come out of it with a fulfilled purpose and the feeling of having contributed to a project they wanted to achieve. After these few days of observation, an individual and then collective meeting will be organised to analyse the different objectives and implement them while respecting each other’s objectives. This way, a volunteer will be able to choose to participate more in one activity than another while not neglecting other services.

can bring your own lunch if you wish. The grocery shop has products for all diets. Meals can be shared with team members and volunteers.

A major urban renewal plan launched some fifteen years ago has made this district more attractive and public services are well
present. Today the district is inhabited by a population mainly from immigration and its unemployment rate is higher than in other districts of the city. Many cultural and sports facilities are present and cultural and sports associations are very active among the
inhabitants.
Next door is Begon House, a social and cultural centre which has just been completely renovated. The Maison de Begon organises concerts and other events throughout the year and at the beginning of the summer, we are partners in a large popular festival which attracts a large part of the local population. For our part, we manage the citizens’ council of the city of Blois, composed of inhabitants and active forces of the district. This body works alongside the city services and the state to improve living conditions in the district and works daily to live better together.

A pilot project in terms of housing:
■ A passive construction, on a human scale, in the heart of the city of Louvain-la-Neuve.
■ A grouped housing unit that brings together 8 young adults IMC’s, an Erasmus student with reduced mobility, a student working on a disability-related issue, two carers and their families.
A pilot project in terms of support:
■ A personalized life project.
■ A maximum of autonomy with a maximum of social links.

Location
Louvain-La-Neuve
The youngest city in Belgium was created in the early 1970s when the Francophone university faculties split with Leuven and set up camp(us) near Ottignies in the French-speaking part of Brabant. Much of life revolves around collegiate life – indeed the entire town belongs to the university – though its brick pedestrian lanes, forested fringes and master-planned design make for an intriguing wander. The chief draw is the architecturally stunning Musée Hergé, dedicated to the famed creator of Tintin.

They wanted their son to live in a community house hosting 5 or 6 residents rather than in
an institution. The “residents” are the people with disabilities living in the houses of the association. They
are men and women with various disabilities aged between 20 and 30 years old. A third of them have a complex dependency and need disability, which means that they need continuous support throughout their daily activities. Generally speaking, the organization aims at improving the personal and the well-being
of each resident

Support and care of the residents
In their daily activities:
■ Take them to the bathroom so that they can take a shower / bath, brush their teeth, get dressed, etc.: These tasks can sometimes be frightening at first. Someone who is not comfortable with this will never be asked to accompany a resident to the shower. But, volunteers can help residents put on a sweater or close buttons on a shirt or tie shoelaces…
■ In their personal household chores: cleaning their rooms and washing their clothes, etc. Volunteers will be able to help, if they wish, the residents in these daily tasks.

In leisure outdoors activities
Walks, visits. Run the daily activities in the Houses.
(! Always in collaboration with and in support of the residents!): shopping, preparing meals, organizing birthday parties, feeding small pets (rabbits, guinea pigs!), etc. Helping to carry out collective household chores: set the table, do the dishes, carry out garden maintenance tasks.
In leisure activities in the House: games, music, etc.
Taking part in neighborhood projects with the residents: community vegetable gardens, chicken coops, etc. Be a member of the team of professional workers (help them, not replace them): participate in the team’s meetings, brainstorming on educational projects, organization, activities. Participate in training sessions, as well as discussions and evaluation sessions carried out by the support workers in the House.

The aim is to make Waulsort attractive for the tourists again, to exploit its potential in order to create jobs, support local producers and at the same time recreate proximity services. On an ecological level, apart from the fact that all products are local, organic and seasonal, nothing is disposable in the Villa 1900, except toilet paper…
We favor ecological and raw material. All clothes and home textiles are second hand to not support unethical and non-environmental suppliers. The garden is not chemically treated and includes a few squares of grass.
Native species are fostered: there are many birds, fed during the winter. A pond helps to support biodiversity and hens to reduce waste.
In the store, we aim at “zero waste”: we buy many bulk products and favor re-usable packaging. Our sustainable management tries to embed all aspects of a sustainable society: cooperative management, participatory democracy using collective intelligence, social justice and integrating differences (insertion of the long-term unemployed, collaboration with people who went through psychiatry, intercultural and inter-generational relations), attention to North –South and present-future balance, through the farm cooperative to favor local exchanges and local resilience (alternative currency, SEL), individual development, promotion of permaculture and other agro ecology types, promotion of soft mobility, reflection on other business and teaching models…
