SB Espoir: Empowering Refugee Youth in Brussels
SB Espoir is a project that works directly in the accommodation centers that host young asylum-seeking minors and women, conducting life skills and psychosocial support activities that support them for their new life in Brussels, it has been active in Brussels, from working with young people arriving to Park Maximillian in 2015 on an ad-hoc and needs-based basis to now.
Within SB Espoir, in 2019 we piloted an extension of activities with a women and girls center in Jette called “Son Choix, Son Avenir” (her choices, her future). This project focuses on promoting social inclusion, personal development and access of opportunities for asylum-seeking girls and women.
