– organizations or entrepreneurs from rural areas, who would like to host young people to transmit them a particular knowledge and to share their experience.
The programme offers the possibility for the trainee to discover and learn from the experiences and practices of organisations and people dedicated to sustainable local and rural development, while spending a time in a place of his choice (according to the hosts availability). It is expectable that a real exchange between host and trainee is established in order for the trainee to collect a particular know-how as well as share his experience and knowledge in his country with the host.
