European Dimension

Although our project takes place in India, it is specifically designed for disadvantaged young people and aims to enhance their employability through international mobility. A particular focus is placed on supporting participants’ professional integration or, when relevant, their return to education following the mobility experience. Through tailored mentoring, practical volunteering tasks, and reflective workshops, the project helps young participants develop professional skills, intercultural competence, and personal confidence, providing concrete tools and experiences to strengthen their future career or educational pathways.
