Programme for refugees
We help refugees gain access to employment.
We believe that refugees’ knowledge and skills can make a valuable contribution to our society.
We believe that our society can benefit from the skills of people from refugee or migrant backgrounds. We help them to overcome language and cultural barriers, as well as the frequent lack of recognition of their previous careers.
Being turned down and experiencing unemployment leads to psychological problems, social isolation and dependence on state welfare.
Programme 1: Entrepreneurship
Programme 2: Career and job market orientation
What we have achieved through Capacity since 2019
Our partner Capacity brings locals and newcomers together with a focus on collaborative skill-sharing at its centre. Capacity's Talent and Start-up Incubator runs an Entrepreneurship and an Access programme, both of which are aimed at people with a refugee or migrant background in Switzerland.
