The Green Mango project aims to help vulnerable young people become more self-reliant by enabling them to acquire practical vocational and entrepreneurial skills.
Through an after-school programme developed in partnership with schools, the project seeks to turn lives shaped by vulnerability into opportunities for social integration and economic independence.
The main objectives are to offer prospects to children, young people and adults through education, art and an introduction to environmental protection.
Objectives
The project runs an after-school programme for 300 young people and works in partnership with schools. Its approach focuses on acquiring vocational and entrepreneurial skills and on empowering young people.
Courses are offered in digital literacy, beekeeping, sewing, crafts, sports and educational leisure activities.
Activities
300 young people benefit from the Green Mango after-school programme.
