MAISON IV

The Intercultural and Volunteering House

An Intercultural and learning third place in Marseille

A multicultural area such as Marseille and its region needs a space adapted to and dedicated to educational and mobility.

This intercultural and learning third place will allow the preparation and international mobility projects of young people and to promote sustainable human development through the development of intercultural sensitivity among young people.

A historical place :

Maison IV is located in a unique place with remarkable architectural features the « Bastide des Bessons ». This bastide, located in Sainte Marthe in the 14th district, is listed in the PLUi (local inter-municipal town planning plan) of Marseille-Provence for its architectural qualities and heritage value. The Mastradour is

designated as the « Villa with harp spans » located within the perimeter of the protection of a historic monument the Bastide de Montgolfier-la-Tour-du-Pin and its park. It is also with the intention to conserve this heritage site and reorganise its uses in view of the current occupation by associations, that the project was born and that renovation work is necessary.

We have decided to set a target of €80,000 for this fundraising campaign…

but more if we feel like it!

This sum is intended for the work that will take place. It is part of a larger financial project involving our institutional partners: the City of Marseille, the Metropolis, the Departmental Council and the State. In addition, we are applying for a contribution from the FEDER.

This is a modest sum in view of the scope of the project and, more importantly, it is entirely feasible with a joint effort to create this essential place that will contribute to the development of open and inclusive civil societies.

This place belongs to all of us and together it will grow!

Thanks to you, we will renovate this building and offer this part of the city a resource centre around educational mobility, volunteering, and local and international intercultural dialogue!
