Over the past 13 years LP4Y has created solutions, always close to slum areas in large cities such as Manila, Cebu, Iligan, Cagayan de Oro, Calauan, Jakarta, Surabaya, New-Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Raipur, Chennai, Kathmandu, Yangon, Dhaka, and Beirut.

GREEN VILLAGE NEPAL

Green Village Nepal

The first Green Village started in July 2018, with a unique and experimental project of a Sustainable Entrepreneurial Training Center for out-of-school Young Adults nearby Raipur, Chhattisgarh, India. This soft skill training center has welcomed and trained already +300 Youth coming from skilling programs like Vocational Training Programs (VTPs) or other organisms (livelihood, other NGOs, associations...), helped them in developing professional grooming and employability skills (communication skills, organization and management, time management, business mindset, teamwork, citizenship...).

The final objective is to help them to find a stable and decent job (by teaching them, without placement).

 

Based on the same replicable model, a Sustainable Entrepreneurial Training Center was created in January 2020 in Kathmandu, now located in Godawari, Lalitpur.

Both projects use a hands-on pedagogy in the social and professional integration of Youth based on the 11 years experience of Life Project 4 Youth Foundation, LP4Y, specialized in integration of excluded Youth. In a team, the Youth create and develop micro-companies in order to develop skills, gain self-esteem and become actors of their life.
