Intervention

The intervention seeks to provide professional assistance to disadvantaged youth, particularly those who lack mobility and access to professional opportunities due to their location. The provider travels to underserved regions with a vehicle, which offers multiple services, including a welcoming area in which volunteers discuss the beneficiaries' professional goals, provide interview training, and give career advice; a changing room and wardrobe stocked with formal suits and dresses to be used for interviewing purposes by the beneficiaries; and lastly, a professional photography studio to take portraits and CV pictures for beneficiaries.

Target population

Youth aged 16 - 25 years old who are on social welfare ( including jobseekers enrolled at Pôle Emploi and beneficiaries of the RSA), struggling to find a job, or in unstable employment positions, who are isolated from the job market.

INDIGO data are shared for research and policy analysis purposes. INDIGO data can be used to support a range of insights, for example, to understand the social outcomes that projects aim to improve, the network of organisations across projects, trends, scales, timelines and summary information. The collaborative system by which we collect, process, and share data is designed to advance data-sharing norms, harmonise data definitions and improve data use. These data are NOT shared for auditing, investment, or legal purposes. Please independently verify any data that you might use in decision making. We provide no guarantees or assurances as to the quality of these data. Data may be inaccurate, incomplete, inconsistent, and/or not current for various reasons: INDIGO is a collaborative and iterative initiative that mostly relies on projects all over the world volunteering to share their data. We have a system for processing information and try to attribute data to named sources, but we do not audit, cross-check, or verify all information provided to us. It takes time and resources to share data, which may not have been included in a project’s budget. Many of the projects are ongoing and timely updates may not be available. Different people may have different interpretations of data items and definitions. Even when data are high quality, interpretation or generalisation to different contexts may not be possible and/or requires additional information and/or expertise.
