The MDE40 Wipsee is mobilizing to give back the power to act to citizens, to support the strengthening of the skills of social actors, integration, animation and education. To do this, it coordinates or participates in Erasmus+ Adult Training, mobility or partnership projects.

She currently leads an Erasmus+ consortium made up of a wide variety of stakeholders who are keen to observe methods and practices among their European peers that will enable them to improve or evolve their working methods and thus be more effective in reaching their audiences. Joining this consortium is possible upon request and approval by the Steering Committee.

Within MDE40 Wipsee, we will carry out observation periods, or job shadowing or we will follow training courses to improve our support, our workshops, our training.

Local and international solidarity

Since its creation, the MDE40 Wipsee has never dissociated the local from the international because globalization is our environment and thinking alone is no longer relevant.

These actions :

Develop sustainable and multicultural collective dynamics

Local and European cooperation  

Mobility is often a first step towards the European scale . The MDE40 Wipsee has taken this step by creating a network of reliable, trusted and expert partners.

Today, we are convinced that we can participate in societal changes affecting youth , integration, human rights, the social economy, the environment and digital technology thanks to international cooperation.

This is why we lead or participate in projects around discrimination, rurality, mental health, migration, inclusion, non-violent ecology, non-formal skills, tourism, citizenship (see the projects presented in the Projects section):

01.

KA2 Erasmus+ Youth cooperation project on tools, educational methods for Youth workers in order to improve our educational support on Human Rights, sustainable development, commitment, social economy, entrepreneurship, acquisition of non-formal and informal skills, governance and engagement.

02.

Project with the GAL Adour Chalosse Tursan Marsan Agglomération to introduce the Youth component (socio-economic integration) into territorial development activities

03.

KA2 Erasmus + Adult Training cooperation project on tools enabling the sustainability of Third Place spaces, facilitating support for adults in reconversion and reintegration into society, solving individual problems thanks to the civil collective, etc.

This international cooperation also aims to develop the secure sending of our young people abroad for missions of general interest and volunteering.

 

Thanks to these international cooperations, we have the financial and structuring means to:

Develop and improve our practices (language, interculturality, digital, ecology, etc.)

Discover new approaches, methods, tools (exchanges, experiments)

Change our postures (open-mindedness, creativity, entrepreneurship, networking)

Engage in new territorial dynamics between organizations (inter-knowledge, shared actions between different sectors)

Make our actions more visible locally while having an impact on a macro scale

Responding to territorial issues and needs through transnational reflections, exchanges of practice, and innovative proposals

Information about Europe

We are the 38th House of Europe in the network. We have joined the French Federation of Houses of Europe

At the same time, the Regional Council of Nouvelle Aquitaine supports us and promotes European construction and democracy.

The main mission of this network is to promote European construction, European citizenship and make European institutions more accessible and understandable.

2

It is important that the European Union be as close as possible to citizens. We are therefore an information relay on department 40.

We can offer documentation, workshops and activities, organize events, invite elected officials.

Every month, we share information about European life and current affairs on our social media channels. Produced by our volunteers and members of the volunteer campus, this Com'Europe provides simple explanations in just a few seconds about the cultural richness and expertise of the European Union.
