Building a meaningful career path through innovative teaching approaches
As part of the Education hub, the Youth department also designs inclusive support programmes for people who need to be (re)mobilised in their personal and professional careers.
The inclusion projects offer innovations in pedagogical support to accompany unemployed people (with a particular focus on young people from the Priority Neighbourhoods of the City) and accompany them towards employment or entrepreneurship. The aim is to build a career path that makes sense for them, while integrating the requirements of sustainable development.
Two methodologies have been developed around
Sustainable employment
Sustainable entrepreneurship
These paths allow beneficiaries to make their projects come true, to enhance and develop their skills, to regain self-confidence and to better understand the labour market.
These individual and collective initiatives integrate innovative pedagogical approaches which are specific to the Learning Planet Institute, such as learning through design, collective intelligence, fablabs and their philosophy, virtual reality and games.
HOP! – Hashtag Objectif Pro
HOP! or Hashtag Objectif Pro, is an agile, innovative and collective project, designed as “action research”, dedicated to people with few or no qualifications who are far from employment – and more particularly women and young people aged between 18 and 30 – in order to support them, via integrated and personalised pathways, towards a return to employment or business creation.
The aim is to reveal, enhance and develop each person’s skills, so that everyone has the opportunity to find and build a career path.
On the programme: individual and group support, educational workshops, civic involvement, work experience (in companies, culture and the great outdoors), etc.
Developed with companies and socio-economic players, putting people into action is at the heart of the HOP! project.
HOP! is deployed in the priority urban neighbourhoods of the 3 largest French cities: Île de France, Metropole of Lyon, Aix/Marseille).

Faire & Play
Faire & Play (Do & Play) is a project dedicated to the residents of priority urban neighbourhoods – city of Paris (13th, 14th and 15th arrondissements) and the Hauts-de-Seine department (cities of Asnières, Gennevilliers and Colombes) – which offers young people who have been excluded from the labour market an intensive remobilisation programme and personalised local support with a view to their long-term integration.
The project is based on the principles of fun and symbolic rewards, the creation of challenges and the development of a sense of belonging and empowerment.
The aim is to reach out to young people aged between 16 and 25 – in person and via social networks – to offer them a range of activities tailored to their needs and desires (e-sport challenges, rap, dance, crafts, etc.).
These activities will then be replicated by the young people themselves: their participation in the organisation of these events will help them to develop the skills they need.
The programme combines group activities with individual support. In addition, the programme provides opportunities for young people to work on their own personal development and career orientation, and to match their demonstrated skills with the needs of companies.
