Through this Call for Partners initiated in 2020, the aim is to help the most vulnerable and to support, in particular, initiatives in favor of education and youth integration. A local version of the Call for Partners has been launched, making the South-West the first pilot region to test the scheme. A dedicated platform was created. In 2020, two partners were selected: AJIR and Rebonds!.

AJIR
In Pau, AJIR supports the integration of migrant minors through apprenticeships thanks to its network of apprentice training centers (CFA) and local companies. In light of the crisis, the association wants to continue its administrative, educational and social support for young people, and to allow the most affected companies to secure the hiring of apprentices until they graduate.
Rebonds!
Rebonds! educators often offer rugby activities in schools, after-school programs and specialized facilities in the Toulouse region. During these activities, they may identify certain young people who are in a vulnerable situation. The association then offers them integration into a rugby club and social follow-up to help them build their academic and professional orientation.
