SOLUTIONS
INTEGRATION VS INCLUSION
Integration encourages marginalized people to adapt to the existing system, while inclusion transforms environments so that each individual feels valued and respected. Integration alone does not guarantee real and lasting inclusion.
For 15 years, LP4Y's solutions have enabled excluded young adults to develop the skills they need in order to find stable and decent employment. Thanks to an approach that combines guidance, training and support, each young adult develops autonomy and becomes an entrepreneur of their own life, while also acquiring the skills that are required by employers.
LP4Y TRAINING CENTERS
In Asia and the Middle East, LP4Y creates training centers where young adults design their life projects and develop professional and social skills through experience, enabling them to achieve full and sustainable integration.
On completion of these training programs, 73% of Youth find decent employment.

COMPREHENSIVE INCLUSION

WELLBEING
Encouraging physical activity, promoting a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle to foster physical and mental wellbeing
CITIZENSHIP
Becoming active and engaged members of society
ENVIRONMENT & SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Understanding environmental and climate issues, addressing the challenges of the ecological transition
