The "Young Ocean Ambassadors" project aims to support young people aged 14-17 from a priority neighborhood in Capesterre-Belle-Eau (Guadeloupe), mostly experiencing school dropout, through an educational, social and civic re-engagement process via a bilateral European exchange with young people from Lefkada (Greece), focused on the sea, coastal areas and the blue economy. From a youth work practice perspective, this project addresses several fundamental objectives: Enabling young people with fewer opportunities to access European mobility and experience a structured, empowering and emancipatory experience. For these young people often confined to their neighborhood and facing limited horizons, the European exchange represents a powerful lever for re-engagement and opening to the world. Restoring self-confidence and sense of capability. By engaging in an ambitious, recognized European project, young people experience that they are capable of succeeding, honoring commitments, expressing themselves and cooperating, breaking away from cycles of failure and devaluation. Developing transversal and transferable skills: autonomy, communication, cooperation, project management, intercultural openness, critical thinking, civic engagement. These skills, acquired through experience and non-formal education, constitute lasting resources for pathway development. Broadening future perspectives and facilitating career guidance. Discovering careers related to the sea and blue economy, a strategic sector for island territories, enables young people to envision professional pathways adapted to their territory and meaningful. The project aims to transform often imposed guidance into chosen and assumed projection. Strengthening active European citizenship. By meeting Greek youth, cooperating around common issues, comparing their respective island realities, young people develop lived European awareness based on solidarity, respect for diversity and shared commitment. Raising environmental awareness and developing ecological responsibility. Coastal protection, fighting marine pollution and preserving ecosystems are central project themes, enabling young people to become responsible actors in their territory's sustainable development. Promoting social inclusion and fighting marginalization. By offering these young people a demanding, structured and caring educational framework, the project aims to break with expected trajectories often marked by exclusion, and recognize these young people as resources for their territory's future. From a youth work perspective, the project is based on several fundamental principles: Active participation of young people at all stages: design, preparation, implementation, evaluation, dissemination. Young people are not mere beneficiaries but full actors, involved in decisions, empowered and recognized. Non-formal education as a learning lever. Facing young people disconnected from traditional school frameworks, participatory methods, experiential learning, validation of lived knowledge and content co-construction constitute particularly adapted and effective pedagogical tools. Comprehensive and individualized support. Each young person benefits from personalized follow-up, attentive to their needs, vulnerabilities and potential, in a logic of care and validation rather than remediation. Network and partnership work. The project mobilizes local actors (professionals, associations, institutions) and international partners (Greek partner organization), creating an ecosystem favorable to youth development. Educational continuity and post-mobility follow-up. The exchange is not an isolated action but part of a sustainable support pathway, including preparation, mobility and follow-up, with guidance support for career orientation, integration and civic engagement. Ultimately, the project aims to demonstrate that young people perceived as struggling actually carry considerable potential, when provided with an adapted, demanding and empowering educational framework. It seeks to transform a vulnerability situation into an emancipation lever, using Europe as a pedagogical, social and human tool, serving pathway construction and social inclusion.
