French volunteer wanted for EVS-project in Spain: Educational reinforcement and skills improvement for young inhabitants in excluded neighborhoods.The "CONECTAD@S" project aims to give continuity to the previous project presented by our organization, in order to offer young Europeans the possibility to live a volunteer experience. The entities hosting these volunteers are located in the city of Valladolid; they are Casa de Juventud Aleste, as coordinating entity, as well, and Allende Mundi.
Both entities are located in neighborhoods with special social, economic and cultural needs, that is to say, inhabited by groups in social exclusion situations. There is a large number of ethnic minorities and/or immigrants.
