Project presentation
The Val-de-Marne is the second largest refugee-hosting department in France, yet very few services are available to help them find work and integrate professionally.
The project, led by the association Les entreprises pour la cité, consists of accompanying refugee women towards employment, by setting up a pathway geared towards professionalization (French courses, meetings with companies, job search workshops, etc.), while considering the difficulties they may encounter, particularly childcare and discrimination. The association will also collaborate with the Groupe Accueil et Solidarité (GAS, an association already supported by the Foundation), which will offer social support to the beneficiaries. Depending on the profile of the beneficiaries (level of education, French, integration difficulties), two courses will be offered: a basic course of 8 weeks for the most vulnerable and another shorter, à la carte course.
