Friendshifts

We believe that schooling and vocational training increase chances to a permanent job (and affixed income). In order to create this ambition, underprivileged children should create self awareness allowing them to create and take opportunities to shape their future. This self awareness is stimulated by developing contacts between these children and children in schools in The Netherlands and France. These contacts have a positive impact on all children. They feel seen, learn from each other and practice a foreign language. The contacts stimulate children to reflect on themselves, their future and their ambitions. The next step is to guide children in their school career, help them with homework, find an traineeship and a adequate vocational training institute. Our partners are in Togo, India and soon Jordan and Myanmar.
