THEMES AND OBJECTIVES Practical contributions to both heritage conservation and community development. Practical work in the conservation and presentation of a heritage site or monument is always at the heart of our projects. Beyond its intrinsic cultural and historic significance, this heritage is part of an area’s social and economic life and thus has a role to play in local sustainable development. Mobilising a wide variety of participants – especially youth Open to all motivated people, without requiring prior experience or qualifications, our projects allow everyone to feel ownership of their built heritage and to become an actor in its conservation. Projects are especially, though not exclusively, adapted to young people (around 16 to 30 years old) who are looking for voluntary or training experience. An original approach, serving educational objectives
Work and group life are carried out in a way that encourages the participants’ autonomy and their taking responsibilities and initiatives. As such, projects represent an informal educational experience, facilitating the participants’ self-development by building up their capacities, knowledge and social skills. Solidarity and exchanges – the foundations for our project partnerships
These initiatives gather together diverse partners from the public and private sectors, institutions and non-profit-making organisations, assorted bodies working at international, national and local levels. We seek to share our know-how in youth and heritage with partners, whilst adapting ourselves to local contexts and needs
An NGO for YOUTH and HERITAGE
The purpose of CHAM is to bring together motivated people, especially young persons, and to help them to carry out conservation and enhancement work on built heritage.
Our activities are of four main types :
* youth volunteer projects (also known as “workcamps”) raise teams of motivated young people, led by experienced project officers, in order to undertake work on a heritage site. As well as work, these projects, which last for a few weeks, involve group life and activities, as well as discovery of the local area.
* « Historic Monuments » training sessions are short projects based on practical conservation work on site, as well as more theoretical visits and lectures on topics such as historic buildings, conservation techniques and the running of heritage projects.
* on the job training is carried out over periods of several months to a few years and has the objective of providing jobseekers with basic technical training and professional and social skills.
* heritage education activities, in the form of creative workshops and dynamic outings and visits, are run to sensitise and initiate schoolchildren and other groups in heritage matters.
Since 1980, through the contributions of thousands of volunteers and trainees, CHAM has played a part in the conservation of over fifty heritage sites in and overseas French territories. During the past few years we also have been able to reply to a number of partnership requests from overseas through our assistance in instigating and running youth heritage projects abroad.
