Pierrick Dano Manager of Sports-Village in Vannes, France Payatas Sports team Maritoni Itable, 22 yo, Responsibility Step, LPC Payatas, Manila, Philippines My generation has a great responsibility in the social, economic and ecological situations of OUR PLANET. I have always felt the need to be connected to people from different backgrounds. SPORT, which I know and love, as a practitioner and as a business manager, is the mean that I have used the most to SHARE and TRANSMIT values and experiences. Today again, sport allows me to participate very modestly in the actions of LP4Y. I got to know LP4Y, through Pierre-Marie BUFFE, a very close friend of our. Having learned about his work and his professional project with LP4Y, which I discovered through him, I wished to make a donation in the spring of 2020. I was convinced by the values ​​and commitments of LP4Y. Indeed, LP4Y brings together all the qualities of a modern NGO adapted to the 21st century: it supports the inclusion of young people from poor backgrounds by giving them the minimum of help and means to enable them to use their strength and talents. LP4Y’s approach appeals to the responsibility, initiative and imagination of these young people. Support people are accelerators, but the energy comes from these young people. Contributors and partners thus have the joy of participating in the blossoming of future creators and leaders of activities that will reflect on the communities from which these young people come from. My participation aims to help the support program "PAYATA Sport" in Manila, through small transfers of experiences and testimonies. Our first action consisted in making, with the help of Pierre Marie BUFFE, short tutorial videos in which I presented Sports-Village, its functioning and gave some advice to support the “PAYATA Sport” team to improve their program and offers to their community. We decided commonly with the Coaches of PayataSport the interesting topics for the Youth, focussing on the communication and organization of the activity: These videos launched an interactive exchange with the Youth. This first experience will continue with the support of the Sports-Village team, which will respond to the different requests for support and advices from PAYATA Sport. A further step in this partnership will be to invite our Sports-Village member clubs in France, who practice the sports offered by PAYATA, to create contacts with the Youth and share experiences and knowledge with each, by exchanging interactive videos. As Sports-Village deeply believes in the power of solidarity and cooperation, we see this partnership as a concrete engagement. Thanks to LP4Y I discovered another way of expressing my solidarity by connecting natural compassion to the effectiveness of a program that aims at autonomy. I see in this experience a new reason for hope and to act with optimism! Truly. Pierrick DANO, Manager of Sports-Village, Vannes, France. A dedicated platform to the benefit of sports clubs and its members. Pessimism is in the mood! Optimism is the will! (Alain, French philosopher 1868-1951)

Shilpa Tiruwa 18yo Batch 2 Management step On Monday 28th of September, the Green Village of Budhanilkantha in Nepal welcomed 10 young women to restart the 3 months-training, all of them are motivated and eager to learn. Between days of training, guidance, joining their MEIs and informal time on the rooftop with Stars testimonies, the days are full of discoveries. Congratulations for their dedication and hard work on these first weeks of training ! Namaste, My name is Shilpa Tiruwa. I entered the Green Village Kathmandu two weeks ago. When I first heard of the Green Village, I was interested and was truly excited to be there for the training. I counted myself lucky when I was provided an opportunity to join the training and all I could think of, was when I would be able to be there. However when I joined the GV I had poor English and that worried me. But since the beginning of the training, I am much more confident in myself and there has been improvement in my English speaking skill. In the past weeks, I have been learning things that I have never heard of before. This has helped me to compare my old self with my new self. I am always thinking of ways to boost the knowledge and skills I already possess. We have started our own micro companies and this has given me an insight on how business works and how much of hard work goes into it ! Within two weeks of being here we have graduated to the ‘Management step’ which I am very proud of and I truly believe that by the end of this training I will have become a capable individual and get a decent job. Thank you LP4Y from the bottom of my heart for this opportunity !

At this time I would love to go to a beach where there are mountains at night, Peacefully sit on it and observe the stars in the sky Feel the wind on my cheeks when it blows through me.

Albane Pournin 25 yo Coach in Raipur India I had never realized so deeply before the beauty and the true sense of changing. When I say changing, I embrace both aspects of change; The one which is external related to life, and the one concerning our own self. Nonetheless, when I refer to change about our Self, I find more exact, fair to speak about an evolution, a deepening, bringing by life changes. Changing is always a learning experience, a life lesson. Sometimes, it is a small one we don’t even take into awareness. Sometimes, it is a bigger one, the kind which forces you to notice and face it. Whatever is the change, whatever it seems to us positive or negative (this time again this is only a question of mental perception), whatever we had expected or not, change embodied the main door for growing. At one condition : as from the moment we greet and embrace it without any resistance. I share my vision of change because changing of change consideration fully changed my way to live, in such a deeper peace. Because I realized that since the moment we consider a change as something here, happening, stopping fighting against it and letting space for it to exist, this will always appear as an opportunity to grow. An occasion of transformation, evolution at least. Change brings us inspiration. It opens new doors, the ones we would have sometimes never opened by ourselves. Change questions our balance, our certitudes, and awakes some hidden things inside us that we even ignored before. It gives us the chance to access ourselves in an unexpected way, to have a deeper understanding of who we are, who we choose to be. In my opinion, nothing is more stimulating than questioning our balance. This pushes us to cope with new situations, face new emotions, and sometimes take new life decisions. An occasion to take a new look at oneself and to rebuild our equilibrium on meaningful solid bases. The bases that will allow us not to fear the unknown future, not to get lost. Change is the time to step back, and to be all the more eager to develop a steady peace as it is unexpected and constantly happening. The last time I thought about the benefits of change was when I moved to Mumbai last June. It’s definitely not a case in point, a life change, a striking one, but it’s the freshest I experienced. In Raipur, I was fully dedicating my time to the follow up of the Youth, something that keeps me able to maintain a close contact with them (all coaches perfectly know that even if the distanced follow up was challenging, it makes us all the more impatient to see them again in real). I was dreaming about seeing them all again in GV for the job search session. All these Youth to meet again, or even for some to meet physically for the very first time. Indeed, batch 1,2,3,4,5, there were so many youth I had never met before and with whom I was discovering the coaching by distance, different ways to learn to know and listen to them. When I was told about Mumbai, I knew I was leaving for 3 months so I will miss this job search session which seemed to me as an “achievement” of all this follow up. Strangely, it took me a very short time to feel released and even excited to leave. For sure, the fact I was also joining my beloved pregnant friend to help her with the Youth and the fact there was a real need for coaching, makes the leaving quite fast and easy. But deeply inside me, I knew that my excitation was about change. However, I didn't feel like I needed or wanted any change at that time. I was enjoying my routine so much during the lockdown. Meditation, yoga, dance, writing, bouddhist personal development sessions, time spent and shared with my GV team, were largely enough to keep me in full energy, creativity, and motivation. But as from the moment I came to mumbai, I realize that it has been even better not to expect the change, and welcome it at the moment I didn’t expect it to come. I realized quickly during my first week that I had a new enthusiasm, a fresh mindset, a will to reinvent my routine.I understood that the unexpected came maybe at the perfect time, maybe just before I started to need it and develop some expectations. Since three months I have been here, my “pillars” remain the same : meditate, dance, yoga, without forgetting the roommates sharing time (as the big brunch sessions or the week-ends full of oats and delicious homemade bread). But they have undoubtedly a different taste, a different flavour. Not in a sense of comparison, better or not better, but in a sense of authenticity. Change is this thing that keeps us feeling alive, and sounds like a reminder for self-awareness.

Carlos Walter, biomedical engineer, General Electric Hi all! I’m Carlos Walter, a Mexican Biomedical Engineer doing a Leadership program in General Electric Healthcare. You probably wonder what my story is doing here. I do so too. A couple of months after I joined GE, I was invited to a call where they needed volunteers for a project that was changing the world for a lot of people. I decided to join to understand what they meant by “changing the world” and how I could contribute. As soon as they started, they introduced LP4Y, how they operate, what they do, and how they are, with no question, changing the world. I immediately wanted to be in, I wanted to be a part of such an amazing project. I wanted to help change the world. The way I did that was by creating educational content for the Youth centers, along with a great group of volunteers from all over the world, connected by one common thing; we were all employees of General Electric who wanted to collaborate with LP4Y. I started creating one small introduction to public speaking and storytelling, which is, at least in my opinion, one of the most important skills that need to be developed. Once I got started, I realized a brief introduction was not going to be enough, so I decided to create a couple sessions for the topic. The result was a five-session program with different topics, all related to the selected skills. The rest of the volunteers also created amazing programs for different skills, like how to create a CV, Excel skills, brand management, among others. The content that we created was going to be used with the instructors in centers welcoming the Youth. Unfortunately though, a new world crisis that is reshaping everything we used to know started; the pandemic known as COVID-19. Because of this, LP4Y, along with the team that coordinated GE volunteers, had to work fast to try to adapt to these new conditions. I was lucky enough to be invited as part of the amazing team that works directly with LP4Y and coordinates volunteers from GE, a small team of real-life heroes within the company that calls themselves “Youthful team”. We started working on switching the content we had created, as well as some other content created by the incredible pedagogy team from LP4Y, into digital programs that can be accessed anywhere with an internet connection. More volunteers joined the cause, and they are currently working hard to create the programs on the digital platform and creating new content for the youth. It has been an amazing opportunity, and I am grateful every day, both for being able to volunteer for the Youth Team and the LP4Y organization. I can say, with no question, that this whole experience and collaboration has changed my world for the better. We still don’t know what the effect of COVID will be in everyone’s lives, but one thing we know for sure is that, by doing this small actions, and having the courses on a digital platform, we are becoming participants of the actions that are making the world a better place, with the Youth Team and LP4Y leading the change.

Jérôme Lemouchoux, president of LP4Y Belgium & CEO at Sodexo Benefits and Rewards Services Belgium In April 2020, an online Synergy Meeting was organized, bringing together all the main actors of the LP4Y entities. It was the right time and place to discuss tomorrow's challenges. Jérôme Lemouchoux, one of the first members of the Youth Inclusion Network in the Philippines, currently president of LP4Y Belgium, and CEO at Sodexo Benefits and Rewards Services Belgium, shared with us his vision of tomorrow’s world, his expectations and how he envisages the role of companies in the future. Following are selected excerpts of his speech. “Profit is necessary but becomes a means to an end, rather than an end in itself". “With the crisis that we are facing, it is urgent that we reinvent the role and management of companies. Profit is necessary, but becomes a means to an end, rather than an end in itself. Everyone is in search of meaning. Companies in the future will also have to clearly define their purpose, motivation, raison d’etre. I think that those who continue to focus solely on profit will disappear. Because consumers are tomorrow’s leaders and they will make choices. Because companies will have to recruit talent, and talent will go to companies that make sense. “Workers will expect companies to continue to provide them with training throughout their careers” To succeed, companies must support employability and attract talent. Our world is in constant evolution, Youth are threatened but also have a lot of opportunities, if they are prepared for the right jobs. Workers will expect companies to continue to provide them with training throughout their careers, developing soft skills and curiosity. “For companies to perform well in the future, they must rely on collective intelligence” For too long now, companies have been working in pyramidal mode. For companies to perform well in the future, they must rely on collective intelligence, on organizations shaped via networks, with transversal projects, and trust in teams working towards a clear mission.” Frédéric Van Heems, CEO of Veolia Eau France, shares with us his vision of the type of management the companies will adopt in the future.

Debajyoti Paul co-founder of Cubic Jobs in Kolkata India Greetings from Cubic Jobs .... First of all, Thank you so much for this opportunity to share my view regarding the experiences I had with LP4Y ( Howrah) till now. This is not only about passing a testimonial, this is also about the good experiences and knowledge I gathered from LP4Y. "It has been a great pleasure for me to be a part of LP4Y Howrah Center as a Partner. The greetings from the Coaches and the Youths are very pleasant and overwhelming every time I meet them. It has been a great experience so far for me to see the center and learn about LP4Y's pedagogy. Both the Youths and the Coaches are very supportive and the sessions were very interactive and professional one. The concept of LP4Y of training the Youth for the Job Sector is very interesting and helpful too. As in the present scenario, having a good job is very important. But many job seekers face many problems while applying for a job. LP4Y trains them properly and works on their personality, communication, knowledge & skill sets and guide them properly so that they can land into their dream job. Being from the HR domain I hope the experiences, knowledge about the job market and mock Interviews which I have shared with the Youths has helped and guided them properly to find a right job after their session end. I was asked to take an online mock interview session during this Covid-19 situation, where I found the Youth were very tech savvy, comfortable and professional during the whole online mock session which was very positive. The Coaches have given proper guidance about the online session which has helped me to conduct the mock interview properly. I'm very glad that Carla & Laura invited me as a Partner and allowed me to be a part of this beautiful journey. Will love to attend more sessions in the future with the Youth and the Coaches as learning never ends. The Simple Logic which I have learned from LP4Y is “You have to be proactive while designing your identity cum career to have a happy life”.

Anaëlle Azoulay, co-founder of Azickia Foundation AZICKIA FOUNDATION is a new partner of LP4Y. Anaëlle Azoulay, co-founder, explains the reasons she chose to support the Youth from LPC Payatas. Azickia is a young French foundation – set up as a Fonds de dotation in France in 2019 – with a mission to reduce inequalities in the world, to strengthen social cohesion, and to promote exchange and solidarity. We have chosen to support 3 UN Sustainable Development Goals: access to good health and well-being, access to quality education and gender equality. Thanks to our Foundation and our online magazine, we finance projects with a strong social impact and highlight the many solutions and changemakers addressing our world’s biggest social issues. Through our foundation, we support projects that share our values and ambitions, with a high social impact and an empowerment approach, to create sustainable change. We launched our first Call for Projects early this year and received a lot of applications, more than we expected ! It was a very tough choice for us as if we could have, we would have loved to support as many projects as possible. For this year, we chose four very different projects, each focusing on one or more of the three Sustainable Development Goals we chose to support and with an impact in various countries around the world. Each of these four projects takes an innovative approach to solidarity, with the ambition to enable each and everyone to master their destiny and shape their own future. LP4Y and the more specific project we chose to support with them in Payatas, Philippines, was one of the four projects we selected. We have many selection criteria but the most important one relates to this essential notion of empowerment. LP4Y applied to receive funding for one specific project – PayataSport - located in the Philippines and dedicated to the inclusion of Young women and mothers living in poverty. It was clear that the main mission of this project was to enable these Young women to get lifted out of poverty notably through education and training, but more importantly through a holistic approach to the person and its needs. The important role given to entrepreneurship throughout the whole LP4Y pedagogy was also of interest to us as our foundation is also quite new and we believe it is essential to make room for everyone's creativity, ambition and life goals. Moreover, the discussions and phone interview I had with the LP4Y team was very honest and transparent whether it was about their social mission and goals or the difficulties that they had recently faced with COVID-19. This honest conversation and the team’s invitation to the LP4Y General Assembly all the more confirmed the strong commitment of the whole community and people working for and with LP4Y. Lastly, at Azickia, we are also developing our online « solutions magazine ». Each week, we publish insightful and inspiring articles on health, education and gender equality. These Stories are written by and for committed people, always addressed from a solutions perspective with the aim to help better understand these important social issues, to encourage tolerance, inspire action and improve the world we live in. We are therefore very excited to collaborate with LP4Y to support this reintegration project for Young women in Payatas as well as spread a wider hopeful message through future collaborative Stories that we will work on together with each project we selected. Our new website will also be live in a few days and will enable anyone interested in these four projects including LP4Y to make a direct donation.

Pascaline Griffon, Head of business services CCI France Myanmar, Myanmar My name is Pascaline Griffon, I am Head of Business Services at CCI France Myanmar. As the French Myanmar Chamber of Commerce & Industry (FMCCI), our objectives are to support the development of our members (French, Myanmar and international companies), to help foreign companies settle in Myanmar and to develop economic relations between France and Myanmar. LP4Y team came to us in 2019 to explain their project and to see how we could collaborate. At FMCCI, we strongly believe in equal opportunities, we think that it is also part of our objectives to help the Youth, to develop their skills and to improve their chance to have access not only to employment but to fulfilling jobs. LP4Y gave us a chance to enhance our work on those matters. With more than 150 members, FMCCI is a great way to spread information and awareness about LP4Y. Therefore, we have sent an email to our network to present the association and give our members the opportunity to contribute to this remarkable project. In addition, we have organized a visit of FMCCI office for the Youth, during which FMCCI team members (including myself) have made presentations in relation with our respective jobs to give the Youth some useful tips and information about recruitment, management, and marketing. After that, the Youth presented us their microbusiness projects. It was a great learning experience for both sides, and we intend to renew it as soon as the situation allows us to welcome visitors again. Following my presentation on how to prepare a CV, a cover letter, and a job interview, I have decided to volunteer on a personal basis on weekends to help the Youth in their job research mainly by training them for job interviews. Besides preparing them, mock interviews are always a great occasion to discuss their professional projects, to see if there could be any opportunity with CCI France Myanmar’s members. Indeed, FMCCI is a good networking platform for job research and some of our members are already invested in LP4Y association by offering the Youth internships or jobs opportunities within their companies. CCI France Myanmar has a strong focus on HR support, so we plan to develop a win-win collaboration that could be beneficial for both LP4Y and our members.

Guylaine Hor, French expat in Dehli, former LP4Y volunteer, from August 2017 - June 2020 [French version below] In August 2016, Philippe, my husband, and I, arrived in Delhi for our first expatriation with family. I had followed him and I wanted to make sense of our experience in India. So I asked our predecessor at the AFD (French Development Agency) for a list of NGOs that would be looking for a profile like mine with experience in development projects. LP4Y was on the top of the list. I visited the Life Project Center (LPC) of Paharganj and then the one of Sangam Vihar in early 2017. I first intervened as an outside trainer in English. I immediately felt a strong admiration for the Youth, for their journey, their strength, their humility, their courage and their progress. I was seduced by the LP4Y pedagogy : in addition to giving them professional opportunities, the goal is to participate in the personal development of each Youth. That’s the real meaning of development for me ! Lastly, I was very impressed by the effective ecosystem set up around the Young Adults and of course by the very good results obtained on the field in terms of social and professional inclusion. In two years of volunteering, I had the chance to work with the Young Adults alongside LP4Y team : I was a trainer in English and a support for resumes preparation, mock interviews, research on a business sector, preparation of the Entrepreneurs Day and of the Life Project Plan Presentations of the Youth - two of which could take place at our place in Delhi. I assisted the teams on the follow-up of expenses, worked on the impact figures and the establishment of certain control panels. I had the chance to meet all the South Asia team during the Welcome Weeks - the two-weeks training given by LP4Y when new Catalysts arrive) and the two seminars I attended. I enjoyed evolving in such a dynamic, motivated and innovative team. Being very involved in the French expatriate community in New Delhi on a daily basis, I was able to connect key contacts in my network, business leaders or others, with LP4Y Philippe also received a whole batch of Youth from Delhi in 2017 in the premises of Proparco (subsidiary of the AFD, which participates in the financing and support of companies, financial institutions and social investment funds in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East) as part of a “company visit” during which the Young Adults were able to interact with the employees. Since June 2020, we definitely left India and on this occasion it seemed important to us to give back to this country all that it had allowed us to live. I wished to thank particularly the Youth for giving and teaching me so much. Moreover, for several months, the associations as LP4Y working in the service of the most vulnerable have been impacted in their mission and the Young Adults who follow the program have suffered in their daily life during these months of lockdown and the resulting economic recession. We therefore decided, in consultation with the Communication, Fundraising & Partnership LP4Y team, to open an online donation box to which all our friends in Delhi and all those who came to see us during our 4 years in India, were invited to contribute as a leaving gift. In a few weeks, we have acquired more than 1640 euros ! An amount allocated to finance LP4Y projects in India. Today we are moving to other horizons, far from Delhi, but we want to stay close to LP4Y and its actions. To all the Youth I had the chance to meet, know and interact with : “ You gave me a great lesson of life, humility and resilience. I leave India personally grown by everything you taught me. You are part of my most beautiful encounters in Delhi. DHANYAVAAD - THANK YOU !!! ” Here is what was published at NL 16 (page 25) in May 2018. En Août 2016, Philippe, mon mari, et moi-même arrivions sur Delhi pour notre première expatriation en famille. Je l’avais suivi et je voulais donner du sens à notre expérience en Inde. J’ai donc demandé à notre prédécesseur à l’Agence Française de Développement (AFD) une liste des ONG qui seraient à la recherche d’un profil comme le mien, ayant de l’expérience dans les projets de développement. LP4Y était en haut de cette liste ☺. J’ai visité le Life Project Center (LPC) de Paharganj puis celui de Sangam Vihar début 2017. Je suis d’abord intervenue, en tant formatrice extérieure en anglais. J’ai tout de suite ressenti une forte admiration pour les Jeunes, pour leurs parcours, leur force, leur humilité, leur courage et leurs progrès. J’ai été séduite par la pédagogie de LP4Y : en plus de leur donner des opportunités professionnelles, l’objectif est de participer à l’évolution personnelle de chacun d’entre eux. C’est pour moi le vrai sens du développement ! Enfin En deux ans de bénévolat, j’ai eu la chance de travailler auprès des Jeunes aux côtés des j’ai été très impressionnée par l’écosystème efficace mis en place autour des Jeunes et évidemment par les très bons résultats obtenus sur le terrain en termes d’inclusion sociale et professionnelle. En deux ans de bénévolat, j’ai eu la chance de travailler auprès des Jeunes aux côtés des équipes LP4Y: J’ai été formatrice en anglais et support pour l'élaboration des CVs, préparation aux entretiens d'embauche, recherches sur le secteur d'activité des entreprises, préparation des Entrepreneurs' Day et des Life Project Plan Presentation - dont deux ont pu avoir lieu chez nous à Delhi. J’ai assisté les équipes sur le suivi des dépenses, travaillé sur les chiffres d’impact et la mise en place de certains tableaux de contrôle. J’ai eu la chance de rencontrer toutes les équipes d’Asie du Sud au cours des Welcome Weeks (les deux semaines de formation dispensées par LP4Y à l’arrivée des nouveaux Catalystes) et des deux séminaires que j’ai suivis. Évoluer au sein d’une équipe si dynamique, motivée et innovante m’a énormément plu. Etant au quotidien très impliquée dans la communauté d’expatriés français à New Delhi, j’ai pu mettre en relation des contacts clefs de mon réseau, chefs d'entreprise ou autres, avec LP4Y. Philippe a également reçu toute la promotion de Delhi de 2017 dans les locaux de Proparco (filiale de l'Agence Française de Développement, qui participe au financement et à l'accompagnement d'entreprises, d'institutions financières et de fonds d'investissement social en Afrique, en Asie, en Amérique Latine et au Moyen Orient) dans le cadre d’une “company visit” durant laquelle les Jeunes ont pu échanger avec les employés. Depuis Juin 2020, nous avons quitté définitivement l’Inde et à cette occasion il nous est apparu important de.rendre à ce pays tout ce qu'il nous avait permis de vivre. J’ai souhaité remercier tout particulièrement les Jeunes pour m’avoir tant apporté et enseigné. De plus, depuis plusieurs mois, les associations comme LP4Y travaillant au service des plus démunis ont été impactées dans leur mission et les jeunes qui suivent le programme ont souffert dans leur quotidien durant ces mois de confinement et la récession économique qui en a découlé. Nous avons donc décidé, en concertation avec l’équipe Communication, Fundraising & Partnership LP4Y , d’ouvrir une boite à dons en ligne où tous nos amis de Delhi et tous ceux qui sont venus nous voir pendant nos 4 années indiennes, ont été invité à contribuer en guise de cadeau de départ. En quelques semaines, nous avons obtenu plus de 1 640 euros ! Une somme allouée au financement des projets de LP4Y en Inde. Aujourd’hui, nous partons vers d’autres horizons, loin de Delhi mais nous souhaitons rester proches de LP4Y et de ses actions. A tous les Jeunes que j’ai eu la chance de rencontrer, connaître et côtoyer  : “ Vous m’avez donné une belle leçon de vie, d’humilité et de résilience. Je pars de l’Inde grandie de tout ce que vous m’avez enseigné. Vous faites partie de mes plus belles rencontres sur Delhi. DHANYAVAAD –MERCI !!! ”
