Soziales Eingliederung Lebenskompetenz und Bildung Friedensförderung Juventus F.C.
The aim of the project both in Mali and in the Central African Republic is to contribute to the reconstruction of the social environment. At present, the beneficiaries are 148 young men and women (12-17 years old) victims of the violence generated by the crisis. By participating in the programme the children have an opportunity to regain an understanding of fundamental values, become independent and have more employment possibilities through cultural, technical and sport training. In the Central African Republic 83 male and 17 female child soldiers have been reintegrated in society, thanks to the five-week educational programmes and literacy classes launched by the Ecole des Métiers d’Art. The programmes have equipped them with the necessary skills to support their reintegration. In Mali, 65 children boys and girls aged 12 to 17 follow the rehabilitation programme. Three training centres are operational in Gao, Tombouctou and Bamako with material, educational equipment, and personnel. Further, technical training activities such as tailoring, woodwork, painting and mechanics are also on-going. The programme also provides children with one meal per day as well as aid to families whose children have been reinserted in the normal educational cycle. Cultural and sport activities include music and football. Psychological support activities have been carried out in Bamako and Tombouctou whilst they are still on-going in Gao. All activities focus on the culture of peace.
