Through the “Espace SÄNGÖ”, third place that fights against precariousness of youth, we propose to contribute to equal opportunities, promoting the emancipation and socio-professional integration of youth. Managed by youth and for youth. The SÄNGÖ project aims to: – Create a space for life, exchanges and innovation open to all – Provide access to a healthy and balanced diet thanks to the solidarity shop and the shared kitchen, accessible on social criteria. – Allow youth to open up to the world, to learn and train in the field of international solidarity, citizenship, sustainable development, fair trade, volunteering and civic engagement. The volunteer will be invited to get involved in project activities of high social value. It will also be a open space where its creativity in terms of developing its own initiatives can be put forward.
