Conference-debate : putting an end to young people dropping out of school

Event organized by Break Poverty in connection with the release of its own study on the subject

An alarming fact

Every year, almost 100,000 young people find themselves permanently excluded from school, training and employment. The majority of these young people will be tomorrow’s outcasts. But who are they ? What is their background ? Can we put an end to this fate ? And how ?

To coincide with the release of its study “Le décrochage des jeunes : comprendre et agir”, Break Poverty Foundation is organizing a conference-debate to answer these questions. The event will cover the subject of dropping out of school, as well as solutions for dealing with it, and will feature a number of key events.

During this event, on January 11, 2023 at 6pm at Banque Postale headquarters, professionals and experts will meet to discuss the information gathered and the resulting social findings.
