In the context of a trying economic environment, with little or no growth, the Alliance for YOUth wishes to work hand in hand with the legislators and the education sector to improve the employability of young people and to stimulate job creation. “The Alliance for YOUth initiative, with which more than 200 companies from across Europe have joined forces, is the first pan-European private movement committed to better preparing young people for the professional world and improving their chances in a competitive market. employment which is now totally devastated ”, declares Laurent Freixe, CEO of Nestlé Europe. Key issue for young people According to a recent poll carried out exclusively for the Alliance, 23% of young Europeans see unemployment as the main challenge facing society in the next 5 to 10 years. The poll was conducted by Nielson on behalf of the Alliance. Some 55% of the unemployed surveyed said governments were primarily responsible for the lack of job opportunities for young people. About 2,000 young Britons, Germans, Italians and Spaniards between the ages of 18 and 29 took part in this survey. The results also revealed that 40% of young people in the 21-24 age group did not see any career prospects in their country for the next 12 months. L'engagement de l'initiative Alliance for YOUth Les entreprises de l'Alliance for YOUth se sont engagées à développer plusieurs initiatives communes et individuelles visant à offrir aux jeunes la possibilité d'acquérir une expérience professionnelle significative via la création de plus de 100 000 opportunités d'emploi et de stage. Nestlé a créé près de 8 000 opportunités d'emploi au cours des huit derniers mois. Les entreprises inviteront également leur personnel à se mobiliser pour aider les jeunes à se préparer au mieux au marché du travail : ateliers de rédaction de CV, conseils pratiques ou encore exercices de préparation aux entretiens. Les partenaires de l'Alliance for YOUth seront des membres actifs de l'Alliance européenne pour l'apprentissage mise en place par la Commission européenne ; ils deviendront des ambassadeurs de la formation professionnelle et promouvront les stages d'apprentissage et les différentes offres de formation à travers l'Europe.
