MONITORING AND EVALUATION

EXPLOITATION OF THE HUMAN RESOURCES

The project is the expression of the workers of the Istituto San Giuseppe's will to widen their action in favour of young people risking social alienation, after having acquired decades of experience in the field.

Their experience has in fact led them to the choice of a community-based programme to support and exploit the human resources aiming at the rehabilitation of needy young people and offer them an access to employment.

The main goal of the project was to deliver the young people from their needy condition offering them a chance of social and relational rehabilitation and lead them towards employment and insert as many of them as possible in a project for their work and life.
