Project Summary

In our organizations we must take into account that:
– Many young adults are not involved in their career path.
– The classic indicator of return to work to evaluate the efficiency of our actions is incomplete and does not take into account the richness of a social and professional coaching
process.
– Almost all users of the territories of the participating organizations are located in disadvantaged cities, neighborhoods or rural areas.
All these challenges are directly linked to each other. Our approach is to allocate dedicated time to each one (learn to live better with less) to allow contacts and exchanges to thrive.
We are convinced that our role should be based less on learning and, instead, move towards mediation and activities so that groups can eventually come together, so that the idea of moving forward and progressing becomes a local and concrete reality. To successfully achieve our goals, we must start from the needs and skills of the people involved. It is important that, in this context, we share our practices, experience them in another context and evaluate them.
Many European programs have already allowed exchanges of practices between organizations that help young people and migrants. But all these projects focused on a classic approach to language teaching and learning, institutional knowledge, job search, etc. Our approach is totally different since it consists in the project stakeholders exchanging and developing animation and mediation practices, which allow disadvantaged people to find in themselves (following a process of social constructivism) methods, techniques and tools to live better Together with few means. It is not an approach that tends to insert young people or people at risk of social exclusion, but one aimed at developing exchanges and allowing everyone to improve by repairing, gardening, building, using digital tools, etc.
