General Information
JAVVA (NGO) is a youth organisation and active member of Alliance and CCIVS, promoting active citizenship and intercultural dialogue. It hosts around 100 volunteers from all around the world on local development projects and sends around 50 volunteers on international volunteering projects each year. There are currently 4 staff members. For 2014 financial year, the total amount of financial products was 210 906,98€ : 66% from the governement, 12% from the activities, 18% from the European Commission and 4% from suscribtions or membership fees. JAVVA has 2 priorities : migrations and inclusion of disadvantaged youth. In order to reach these goals, on the one side we have numerous partnerships with centers for asylum seekers (workcamps, EVS, seminaries) and on the other we include about 20 disadvantaged youngsters in our international projects every year. Our main partners are IVS organizations, local authorities and youth organizations.
Mission and Objectives

We aim to promote an ideal of tolerance, solidarity and peace between young people from around the world and to encourage their active participation and mobility. JAVVA has no political or ideological affiliation. International camps and volunteer projects enable intercultural encounters and the discovery of the other and therefore, in our opinion, represent a useful tool in the construction of peace. They contribute towards a fairer world with more solidarity and respect for differences. Even if our projects can not be considered to be within the framework of humanitarian aid or emergency relief, they do invite participation in another culture, and teach team work while participating in a development project in the heart of a local community.

Main Projects / Activities

• Organisation of international workcamps in Belgium
• Placement of Belgian volunteers on international workcamps, MTV and LTV programmes abroad
• Organisation of pre-departure training and evaluation weekend with volunteers
• Preparation, guidance and sending of Belgian volunteers on EVS projects
• Coordinating organisation for local partners in the frame of the EVS programme
• Exchange (hosting and sending) of volunteers with fewer opportunities
• Support to groups of volunteers who implement raising awareness actions related to the theme of migration issues and social exclusion
• Organisation of international training courses and seminars
• Participation in different cultural and associative events in French-speaking Belgium

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

JAVVA can contribute to the belgian Network by sharing information, create partnerships and exchange experiences. JAVVA tends to organise a lot of voluntary services and workcamps with local structures which have a strong social identity (work with underprivileged children, with disabled people, with migrants, etc) and aims to reinforce existing partnerships, meet new partners and take part in large-scale international projects. JAVVA volunteers take part in various events in the local non-profit scene. Moreover, thanks to the energy, motivation and creativity of our volunteers, different activities are set up each year and new partnerships are born.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

Since 2007, JAVVA has been focusing on two priorities: migration issues and working with youngsters with fewer opportunities. Over the last years, JAVVA has had good results in both fields and we would be ready to share our experience with interested FAL members or join FAL projects in those domains. This is an area where we try to improve the quality of partnerships and where we have acquired a certain experience.
Since its creation, JAVVA has always expressed an interest in cooperation with the Southern Bank of the Mediterranean. Cooperation took place under different actions and partners located in Israël,Palestine, Italy, Jordan, Tunisia and Morocco. The MEDA cooperation is of high interest for JAVVA and by joining the Network, we plan to increase and extend our competences, partnerships and activities in the area.

General Information

JES est une organisation de jeunesse pour tous les enfants et jeunes à Anvers, Bruxelles et Gand. Nous les accompagnons dans les domaines des loisirs, de l'éducation, du travail, de la formation et du bien-être.

Mission and Objectives

Notre mission, notre vision et nos valeurs JES sont soutenues par toute l'équipe d'employés et de bénévoles JES. En travaillant régulièrement et à différents niveaux autour de nos valeurs, nous avons développé une bonne boussole. - renforcer Nous autonomisons les jeunes et aidons ainsi à construire une ville meilleure. L'amélioration que nous envisageons est de nature durable ; c'est aussi une ville co-détenue par des jeunes. « Renforcement » est la valeur cible dans notre modèle. - fantaisie Whimsy qualifie JES de laboratoire de travail de jeunesse. Nous colorons en dehors des lignes lorsque nous pensons que de cette manière, nous optimisons les opportunités des jeunes. - Faire confiance La confiance renvoie avant tout à la relation de nos collaborateurs avec les jeunes. Nous investissons dans une relation étroite avec le groupe cible et créons un contexte dans lequel les jeunes se sentent en sécurité. - Ouverture Nous regardons le monde extérieur avec un esprit ouvert. Nous n'avons pas le monopole de la vérité et nous n'excellons pas forcément dans tout ce que nous voulons faire. Nous nous renforçons et donc aussi les jeunes en recherchant constamment des partenariats. - Constructivité La constructivité fait référence à la façon dont nous regardons notre environnement. Nous partons fortement du potentiel des enfants et des jeunes. Nous ne sommes pas aveugles aux enjeux urbains, mais nous voyons avant tout la ville comme un environnement porteur.

Main Projects / Activities

JES s'adresse principalement aux enfants et aux jeunes de la ville âgés de 6 à 35 ans. Nos collaborateurs travaillent avec des jeunes à et autour d'Anvers, Bruxelles et Gand. Nous rejoignons environ 50 000 jeunes chaque année et sommes soutenus par 500 jeunes bénévoles sur lesquels nous pouvons compter. Les groupes cibles que nous atteignons ne peuvent pas être définis sans ambiguïté. À cet égard, ils reflètent la diversité de la ville. Nous offrons un soutien supplémentaire aux jeunes qui ont du mal à revendiquer leur place dans l'espace public, sur le marché du travail, à l'école, en tant que bénévole dans le travail de jeunesse.

General Information
PRESENTATION GENERALE DU PROJET JORSALA Dans les années à venir, un groupe de citoyens européens partira du cœur de l’Europe pour ouvrir la route Jorsala, itinéraire pédestre transeuropéen qui reliera Bruxelles à Istanbul. Pendant 4 mois, cette marche citoyenne, pluriculturelle et non confessionnelle, rassemblera des personnes de toutes origines et de tous horizons autour d’un objectif commun : construire un espace de dialogue interculturel, susceptible de susciter à son tour la création de nouveaux espaces. Afin de préparer et de tester cette édition européenne, nous organiserons une première marche à plus petite échelle en avril 2012 reliant Bruxelles à Aix-la-Chapelle. A travers la marche, nous nous avons le désir d’aller au-delà de nos peurs, pour (re)trouver ce qui nous est commun ; ce qui, au-delà de toutes nos appartenances – culturelles, religieuses, sociales et autres – fait notre humanité profonde, donnant ainsi sens à nos existences, à nos différences et à nos échanges. Nous voulons ainsi nous engager sur la voie du dialogue, indispensable pour la construction d’une paix durable et d’un avenir serein. DE QUOI S’AGIRA-T-IL EXACTEMENT ? D’une marche reliant Bruxelles à Aix-la-Chapelle par les sentiers de « grande randonnée », du 31 mars au 11 avril 2012 (dates correspondant aux vacances de Pâques), ponctuée par différents petits évènements, ainsi qu’un évènement d’une plus grande envergure au départ de Bruxelles. Nous prévoyons un jour de repos à Liège. Nous ouvrirons la marche à un nombre limité de participants (environ 100), en veillant à relayer l’évènement auprès de populations diversifiées, par l’intermédiaire d’associations-relais. Les marcheurs parcourront entre 20 et 25 km par jour et seront accueillis par des collectivités locales. Les marcheurs seront aussi accompagnés d’un caméraman, filmant le quotidien de la marche, ce qui permettra d’alimenter quotidiennement le blog de la marche. Le soir, dans certaines communes, des animations seront prévues pour les marcheurs et les populations locales, visant à favoriser/installer le dialogue, la rencontre et plus largement un esprit de convivialité. Il s’agira de petits concerts par des artistes locaux ou d’autres régions, de conférences, d’activités de découverte historique et culturelle, de rencontres avec des associations locales, etc. Pour en savoir plus et collaborer Jorsala est porté et soutenu par la Fondation M, reconnue d’utilité publique, créée par l’homme d’affaires et mécène belge Pierre Moorkens.

Mission and Objectives

Vision
Nous croyons :
- En l’importance de l’existence d’espaces de dialogue entre personnes et groupes humains qui n’ont pas l’occasion de se rencontrer ;
- Au besoin de l’être humain de vivre des expériences porteuses de sens pour fonder ses relations avec autrui ;
- En la dignité de la personne humaine au-delà de toutes ses appartenances.
Objectifs généraux
Le projet Jorsala entend :
- promouvoir un esprit ;
- être une source d’inspiration pour des actions individuelles et collectives ;
- mettre en lumière des initiatives portées par le même esprit.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

Le sentier que nous voulons tracer peut-être une mise en réseau "physique" des associations AL. De plus, la marche-relais entre Bxl et Istanbul qui initiera le sentier en 2014 peut constituer un projet porteur et fédérateur pour le réseau du FAL.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

Dans la perspective du projet Jorsala 2014, sentier transeuropéen qui rejoindra Istanbul, nous voudrions nous mettre avec un ensemble d'associations le long du parcours.

General Information
Kif Kif is a intercultural youth platform of Flanders (Belgium). The association came into existence with the creation of the website ‘Kif Kif, the intercultural website of Flanders’ (www.kifkif.be), after a rather heavy debate on the topic of integration of migrants in the Flemish press. The objective of the website was then to collect the different opinions and reactions concerning the ongoing debate on the intercultural society in Flanders. Since this modest start, a lot has changed. In three years time Kif Kif has grown into an organisation with clear objectives and projects, that depends on many volunteers and 2,5 fulltime employees. The yearly budget is now around 160.000 euros, mostly government funding. Kif Kif has lots of collaborations, in 2006 we worked together with no less then 71 different organisations.
Mission and Objectives

Kif Kif wants to facilitate an intercultural diversity of voices, to improve the active participation of all citizens in our society, to deconstruct negative and stereotypical discourse and to stimulate critical reflection. For realising these goals, Kif Kif starts from a clear vision: democratic, pluralistic, antiracist and progressive.

Main Projects / Activities

First of all, we have our website, the central working instrument of Kif Kif. You can find a lot of different things there: press releases from Kif Kif about a wide range of topics, an overview of our opinions and articles in the mainstream press, the project MediaWatch, an online radio, a forum, our own journalistic productions, a jobsite, opinion articles, mainstream news, alternative news, an online store, … But Kif Kif also organises public debates, expositions, conferences and many other activities on a regular basis.

Partnership: To meet large-scale social challenges, we cooperate with associations, non-governmental organizations, research centres, companies, other foundations, etc. By combining our efforts, we can work more effectively in the field, whether in Belgium or abroad.
Mission and Objectives

Wide-ranging mission:
The mission of the King Baudouin Foundation is clear and at the same time wide-ranging: to help to improve living conditions for the population. In its 1976 Constitution the Foundation is described as "an independent structure that encourages original ideas and sets up new projects."
The King Baudouin Foundation supports projects and citizens who are committed to create a better society. In this way we can make a lasting contribution towards greater justice, democracy and respect for diversity.
Independent and pluralistic mission:
The Foundation works on an independent and pluralistic basis. This is also guaranteed by the diverse backgrounds of our Board of Governors and our 60 staff. We respect diversity and strive towards quality, transparency and integrity.
The Foundation focuses on specific themes and is based in Brussels, but also supports projects far beyond the borders of Belgium and Europe. By working together with a range of different organisations we aim to harmonise our own mission as effectively as possible with the efforts made by others.
