What do we do?

Participating in international cooperation networks and projects AEDEQ has collected and continues to collect a heritage of updated technical information and contacts related to the IAE to share with its members and the public in general. We do research on the safety and effectiveness of the IAE to demonstrate the best practices, then, through the training and the European data bases we share the results.

In a manner consistent with the principles of social education, promoted by AIEJI, we protect animals and nature and offer activities with horses for people with special needs.

We advise organizations related to the IAE sector to implement good practices to help them integrate into the European social fabric. We cooperate with other non-profit entities and socially responsible companies by sending our volunteers and evaluating their experiences based on European criteria.

We host, send and coordinate European volunteering projects (EVS of short and long term) and individual mobilities of students and workers

We participate in the organization and celebration of cultural events such as congresses, associations’ fairs, historical recreation, traditional festivals, solidarity markets, etc. (see calendar of activities)
