General Information

The association was created to manage EU project in 2013. As coordinator for Luxembourg we participate to several European Youth Events (EYE). Since few years, we are developing more local projects around youth, cultural and social rights. We are also working with a partner LIFE asbl on social issues like the housing in Luxembourg and providing solutions by developing colocations. Current housing crisis is a real challenge for young people and we now have 30 houses with different concepts (monoparental, youth colocations) with the support of Housing Ministery. Other topics we deal with is all around the sustainable development. In the housing project, we are looking to develop ecological and sustainable way to living and also the values that are important for us : autonomy, solidarity, ecology, inclusivity. We are also supported by Council of Europe to develop Youth projects and initiatives. We have only volunteers for the moment but looking to hire one person. We are partner with LIFE asbl and Maison des associations. We received funding for Erasmus + projects with 8 others partners on a project "Find the Fake". We investigate how to develop exchanges for youth people.

Mission and Objectives

Our mission is to improve youth social rights and awareness of their rights. We have a participatory approach and they directly take the decisions within the working projets of the projects. Our objectives are to guide them, to give them the tools and the time to realize things. We also work to recognize their competences (Youthpass and "validation des acquis")

Main Projects / Activities

- participation and/or organisation of cultural activities - Erasmus + project : Find the fake - Trainings (exchange of competencies, conferences) - Games, discussions, presentation, workshops (for example we have a project on democracy)

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

We want to create a youth worker network to improve collaboration and exchange of competencies. We think we can create bridges between the different actors.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

To benefit from others, experiences, advices and to collaborate. In our development we always look for the best practice and proved methods. We also want to show to young people that they are important and listened and that they need to involve themselves. Especially after the COVID-19 pandemic and its bad effects of youth health and social life.
