Reconnecting with family and education

Returning to school is supported through this wider follow-up, with attention to staying in education and preparing young people for training.

Supporting rural young people’s next steps

In rural areas affected by the 2023 earthquake, Al Karam is developing guidance and employment support. The initiative announced for September 2026 with Secours populaire français includes help with training and income-generating projects.
