What is an Emmaus solidarity workcamp ?

A commitment
With other young people coming from all over the world, you will help people who are hosted, who work or who volunteer in Emmaus. Thanks to that volunteer work, you will fight with Emmaus against poverty and exclusion in France and abroad.
Meeting new people
You will also be able to meet and chat with them during trips and activites that would be organized: visiting the area, sport, concerts, picnics, etc. You’ll meet people you’ll maybe never meet somewhere else.
A discovery
You will discover a whole world : Emmaus’world, a world of solidarity. This experience will enable you to understand how Emmaus works, how the association helps people, its history, its struggles. It will also be an alternative experience :, living within a community.
