Our mission
Exclusion can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, nationality, or ethnicity. A set of unfortunate circumstances and a lack of support can lead to shattered hopes and dreams. Education and career development programs have become more accessible than ever through technology. Yet, many don’t have access to these technologies, nor the basic necessary skills to succeed professionally. We aim to open the doors to opportunities to all, helping people live up to their fullest potential. We empower young people through training on digital literacy and the social and emotional skills needed to find their place in the professional world. “ 600 million children and adolescents don’t have access to basic skill training ” UNESCO “ 2/3 of youth in developing economies are without work, not studying, or engaged in irregular/informal employment” Life Project 4 Youth « 70% of jobs today need knowledge in basic digital skills » European Commission Why we are taking action
These recent years have been unprecedented times for education around the world. While the educational community has made concerted efforts to maintain learning continuity during this period, the necessary digitalization wasn’t accessible to all. Young people needed to rely more on their own resources to continue learning remotely.
Education plays a vital role in inclusion and in improving the lives of children and adults around the world. Think Human Foundation leverages the skills of young people to increase their ability to learn and their social connections to pave the way for a better future.

Focus How education facilitates inclusion
"As APAC's Regional Ambassador I gathered 32 colleagues from 3 countries who gave 147 volunteer hours to the young people of LP4Y in the Philippines the opportunity of reaching their dreams through professional exposure. We conducted 30 mock interviews, facilitated 12 training sessions, trained 188 youths, had an impact on 5 LP4Y Centers and was awarded the "Best Partner Multipillars".
Life Project 4 Youth focuses on creating decent employment opportunities for all young people from extreme poverty and exclusionary backgrounds in the Philippines. Without any reference point, the youth fall outside of school systems, lack specific qualifications, and struggle to find jobs. Life Project 4 Youth is building a strong community system to develop digital skills in a committed ecosystem and favor inclusion in the job market. 890 young people will be accompanied per year by this organization in the Philippines and Egypt.

Education for Employment is a leading youth education and employment network across the Middle East and North Africa. It empowers young women and men with skills in demand that lead to employment, dignity and hope. Through training in soft technical skills, employability, digital skills and entrepreneurship, it aims at improving the economic situation of 600 youth in the north of Algeria (180) and in Fes/Meknes/Marrakech Morocco (420). It will also directly impact their families as it will enable these young people to become autonomous and break isolation or exclusion.
