European Dimension & Multidisciplinary Approach
OEMFCI is a youth organization based in France, founded in 2022, led by young enthusiasts who are the main core power of designing, implementing and evaluating local and international youth projects. OEMFCI's team has accumulated experience in organising more than 30 international projects and creating more than 12 educational concepts and training resources.
Our work provides various educational opportunities and programs that bring together diverse communities and groups from across Europe and beyond to share their experiences and views, while developing lifelong transversal personal and professional competences.
We believe in the power and values of interculturality in shaping communities and that is why we believe that everyone has the right to live an intercultural experience, and therefore, everyone must be given the opportunity and support to live such an experience. We aim to achieve this by providing international projects (volunteering and short-term stays) that mobilize youth in France and beyond!
IDENTIFYING CHALLENGES
Our projects and initiatives undertake careful reciprocal needs analysis through participatory methods with impacted groups and societies.
RESEARCH & ANALYSIS
Formal research, from desk-based, to focus groups and case-studies, inform all stages of our project lifecycles.
DIRECT OUTREACH
Peer-to-peer learning is a key methodology used during activities to work with target groups directly through active involvement.
MONITORING & CONTROLLING
All our projects are internally audited in line with French and European-level standards and in full compliance with ethics and values.
FOLLOW-UP & IMPACT
Project results serve as building blocks for further action, and are fully integrated into the design process of new projects and initiatives.
Some of our partners:
Non-Formal Education
Project implementation takes place through diverse methods, such as training courses, seminars, workshops, study visits, exchanges, volunteer services, focus groups, conferences, forums and other formats with local regional, national, European and international partners through non-formal education. We aim to encourage a peer-to-peer learning environment, that transcends national borders, and social backgrounds, and work towards a shared identity as engaged citizens of Europe and the world.
