Issues
A study on the lack of skills and support networks of immigrant youth has enabled us to identify four major groups of young people, notably :
- Inactive and unmotivated youth
- Downgraded competencies
- Language barriers in the labor market
- Young people take part in non-productive activities
The latter group is most often tempted by juvenile delinquency and criminality. And for those who find a job, they are unable to maintain it for a long period.In addition, they are often discriminated against.
All these different elements weaken the local economy and they higly contribute to unemployment of young people.
Aims & objectives
This project aims to increase the skills of young people and to be one of their support networks.This will allow us to have the following groups of young people :
- Young people participate in productive activities
- Active and motivated young people
- Young people access the traditional financial system
This will help reduce urban crime and lessen the informal economy and the youth will easily integrate the society.
