Concordia in Ile de France

Located in the north of Paris, the Ile-de-France delegation was founded in January 2007 with the aim of promoting volunteering in urban or peri-urban areas. From the teeming cultural activity of the big Parisian suburbs to the beautiful landscapes of the villages in the area which appealed to the major impressionists, Ile-de-France will surprise you with its diversity and dynamism. It is in this context that you will contribute to the creation of local structures intended to welcome and promote educational, artistic or sport volunteer work. Convinced as you are that intercultural relations generate solidarity, you will implement and take part, besides manual work, in cultural activities in order to build relationships with the local populations and make the work camp part of local and sustainable development.

Activity : 11 international workcamps in 2011 and 40 realized from the opening of Ile de France office in 2007, some had as a follow up a long term volunteer project, through the Civil Service or the European Volunteer Service.
