    The Lifetime Projects team in Colombia supports local organizations and co-develops projects in the field of education, culture and the environment. Despite a high proportion of children in the village, few activities are offered to them and they tend to get bored or play on the street once school is over. Thus, in order to meet an omnipresent demand from them, Vivac’t – LifeTime Projects Colombia has developed an entertainment space to offer fun, educational and entertaining extra-curricular activities. The activities are thought out according to various themes such as solidarity, the environment, the body, and this, in a fun educational approach seeking to stimulate their imagination and arouse their curiosity about the world around them, develop their sense of cooperation and respect for others as well as their self-confidence.

     

    Thanks to the presence of our international volunteers, a space for intercultural exchange has been created. For example, we offer language workshops to meet the expectations of young people and adults, particularly in the context of the development of tourism in the village.

     

    In addition, Vivac't – LifeTime Projects Colombia participates in the promotion of local Afro-descendant culture by collaborating with the village’s cultural center and by supporting initiatives by young people in the village such as the newspaper “Rincón de las noticias”, and this, in a knowledge and skills exchange approach.


    Presentation of the mission

    Are you passionate about art, extra curricular activities, the transmission of knowledge and intercultural sharing? Do you want to give your time to a solidarity project by participating in the organization of activities intended in particular for the children of the village?

     

    During your mission, you will thus support the local team to propose, prepare and lead workshops with children and young people: linguistic, artistic, creative and manual workshops, or sports activities, etc. The center is open to any new workshop proposal!

     

    The local team also works in collaboration with the village's cultural center, Corporacion Mariamulata, which intends to promote the local Afro-Colombian culture by offering cultural activities such as traditional dance and music to children and young people from an educational perspective. Your mission will also consist of supporting their team and carrying out joint events, such as the regular organization of an open air cinema for the inhabitants of the village.

     

    For this mission in a socio-cultural center in Colombia, it is necessary to master the basics of Spanish in order to be able to communicate with the children and the inhabitants of the village and to carry out the socio-cultural activities.

     

    As for any mission in contact with children, it will be necessary to carry out a preliminary interview with the referent psychologist of the association.

    We believe that the best way to discover a new culture is through working on a social project with the local population and living their daily life with them.

    Incontra il tuo ospite

    LifeTime Projects is a French based non profit organisation. 

    We work in the following fields : 
     - Child protection
     - Women's rights
     - The protection of the environment and animal welfare 
     - Eco citizenship

    In the following countries : 
    - Bolivia
    - Cameroun
    - Colombia
    - Guatemala
    - England
    - France 

    We believe in : 

    Living in total immersion in the country you visit 
    By discovering the world with LifeTime Projects, you will experience unforgettable moments. Whether during your mission, with your host family or with the people you meet, you will discover the culture and traditions of a country directly. Thanks to this complete immersion in the life of the country, and having built a project with the locals, you will return with a real knowledge of the local culture.

    Take part in concrete actions
    Do you have difficulty measuring the impact of good deed ? The best way to measure the usefulness of your actions is to carry them out directly, in the field! That is why LifeTime Projects supports you in the design and organization of your humanitarian mission or gap year in total immersion.

    Change your world view, make a difference
    Our humanitarian and ecological missions are designed to have a maximum impact, not only locally but also on the volunteer who will return to his or her daily life enriched by a new perspective on the world.
    We act where people need us most and where our presence is most wanted. You will come back with the feeling that you have made a difference and made your contribution to a more understanding world. We believe we all have a lot to learn fro each other and putting different cultures together is enriching and strengthening for all. 

    Your footprint
    We hope to leave our mark, that of sharing, love and mutual respect, in the hearts of the people we meet and work with (note that our organization is independent of any political party and religious organization).
    Whether in Cameroon, Bolivia, Guatemala, Colombia, France or England, discovering the world allows a better understanding of its challenges. What seems distant from France takes a whole new dimension before, during and after the experience of a mission with LifeTime Projects.
    Participating in an international development mission with LifeTime Projects also means contributing to sustainable development by helping people and changing their view of the world.
