Coordination organisation : Association Gwennili (founded in 1998) Our name, «Gwennili», means «swallow» in the Breton language. You can find this familiar bird all over Brittany and Europe. Close to human beings, it is for us a symbol of exchange. Since 1998 we have organised international youth exchanges of different topics with different kinds of people (pupils, students, disadvantaged young people, young professionals, etc.). Furthermore, for more than fifteen years we have been dedicated to send French volunteers throughout Europe. This year we are going to do the coordination for five hosting organisations in France to allow five young persons to come to Brittany. For further information about the coordination organisation Gwennili, please visit our web- site : or Facebook- Page : «Gwennili, Rencontres et Échanges Interculturels» General information for all the EVS volunteers: The five hosting organisations and Gwennili the coordination organisation- agreed, that all the volunteers will start and end their EVS at the same time. Furthermore, there will be at least one person from Gwennili who will be the tutor for the five EVS volunteers. We hope to create a nice volunteer group, which will meet once a week at our association to exchange experience, work on common projects and discover the city Quimper. Besides the Erasmus+ online course, there will be a language class for everyone who likes to participate once a week. The three volunteers in Quimper will share a flat in Quimper and the two volunteers in Plonéour- Lanvern and Poullan- sur- mer will live in one flat in Plonéour- Lanvern, as well. Everyone will have their own sleeping room. Therefore, the volunteers have the opportunity to get to know each other very well and to live the intercultural experience at home. This will give more autonomy to the volunteers and help them to get to know other people more easily. Gwennili will help the volunteers to open a bank account on which we will transfer some pocket- money and some food money every month. Every hosting structure will offer a personal contact person for the EVS volunteer. Note that we are currently looking for 4 volunteers, since one volunteer has already been selected for Poullan- sur- Mer.
