"we make youth ready for the future"

We enable young people to achieve more, discover their potential and change their future through guidance tools and opportunities.

What do we doOur goals

WHAT ARE WE DEVOTED TO?

We are a civic association composed of young professionals and university students that has been focused on finding solutions for the employment of young people for over 8 years. We help them choose a suitable university and career path, and address the problems that affect us ourselves.

For everyone aged 15 to 30 without distinction

We provide our projects and activities to all young people regardless of their background.

We help through experiential education in the form of in-person projects and social media campaigns.

DISCOVER YOUR PATH IN LIFE AND CAREER

We provide information and guidance for career and school choices, and teach young people to work with trends in a constantly changing world.

We believe that everyone has the right to quality information and we strive to help each person find their own path.

DISCOVER WHAT YOU NEED FOR SUCCESS

We focus on adaptability and 21st-century skills, offering multi-month programs to help young people acquire the skills they need for their careers and understand the importance of self-improvement.

In addition, we also provide special educational programs for disadvantaged groups.

TALKING ABOUT CAREER IS RARE. LET’S CHANGE THAT!

With the arrival of a new generation, expectations in the workplace are changing. That’s why it’s important to discuss career paths with young people, whether through social media or in-person interactions.

Our role is to bridge the gap between employers and Generation Z through consultations, surveys, and events tailored to their needs.
