Youth Initiative For Development

We are proud to share that on 16 December 2025 in Geneva, during the Global Refugee Forum (GRF) Progress Review, our #Director successfully co-moderated a parallel high-level side event titled: #MeaningfulRefugeeParticipationInPractice: #ScalingImpactAndShapingThePathForward.”

I just voted for this very innovating project. I invite you to take a look and also support it! startupper.totalenergies.com/en/juries/c9Ck…

Did you know that many refugees cannot legally work in the countries to which they fled? That's why Canada's Economic Mobility Pathways Pilot (EMPP) is so crucial: the program provides a legal, permanent work opportunity for qualified refugees while filling labor shortages.
