SB Espoir
Giving hope to young asylum seeking peopleÂ
SB OverSeas 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 the SB Espoir project that works directly in the accommodation centres that host young asylum-seeking minors and women, conducting life skills and psychosocial support activities that support them for their new life in Brussels.
Â
The SB Espoir volunteers participate in the activities on the weekend, in order to provide a cultural exchange, build a network and aid in their inclusion in Belgian society
Within SB Espoir, in 2019 we piloted an extension of activities with a women and girls centre 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.
