Dear Partners,

RESACOOP has received an urgent call for help from one of our members, a local NGO called SCDhttps://smex-ctp.trendmicro.com:443/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=http%3a%2f%2fscd.asso.fr&umid=8454acac-08eb-4820-928b-a9229fd7642e&auth=750793405c54aec48843912a4a8a008e112ec255-f37818c3a57af0985b8d4685c3c835cff1466341 (Service for cooperation and Development), which is specialized in facilitating volunteering in Southern countries as well as welcoming youth from abroad in Lyon for 6 to 10 month-long civic service periods.

Since 2019 SCD has been leading a project called « prODDige http://scd.asso.fr/le-scd-lance-son-nouveau-programme-de-volontariat-de-reciprocite-autour-des-objectifs-de-developpement-durable/ » which aims to engage every year 24 youth, from both local background (12) and Southern countries (12), in promoting the SDGs in the area of Lyon. You may have met Tiphaine, who collaborated with RESACOOP last year on Frame Voice Report.

The Covid-19 crisis has prevented SCD to welcome this year's youth from outside the EU and is now actively and urgently looking for 5 to 6 European youth to make the intercultural exchange a reality locally.

How does prODDige project work? 24 youth, half French, and the other half from abroad, spend 6 month (starting January 2021 to June 30th) in Lyon with their working time divided into two parts:

* 3 days a week in a local organization working on general interest missions (organizing events and workshops, providing information and counselling, implementing studies, etc) aimed at local communities (especially youth, deprived communities, homeless people, etc) and/or missions related to sustainable development issues (making cities a livable place, recycling, health, food...) at a local scale. * 2 days a week in SCD's premises along with the 24 youth working altogether on creating and implementing collective personal projects related to SDGs

What's the urge? Next civic service period starts January 1st, which implies contracts need to be signed December 31st at the latest.

How can I help? Helping spread the news in your networks or direct acquaintances.

Who can apply?

* Youth from 18 to 25 years old * Good command of French language * Experience of involvement in associations in their homeland

Working and living conditions in Lyon

* SCD provides welcoming, housing (flat share), 6-month civic service contract, health insurance, return plane ticket . * Local organizations youth will work for 3 days a week provide the required professional frame. * 473 euros monthly allowance

More info You will find enclosed:

* A brief and general presentation of the prODDige project * An example of a civic service mission offer (this is one of the 6 current offers) * A quick recount on projects developed by last year's prODDige youth * A video presenting the prODDige project : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlLIdjiRQYU&t=21s

I'm interested, what's the next step? If you're interested and think you can help SCD find young volunteers in your country within the very short timeframe, let us know ASAP so that we can arrange online meetings with SCD to clear up all your doubts and questions.

Thanks in advance and all our apologies for this very short notice.

Best regards,

Nicolas PONTIAC Chargé de mission
