Once upon a time…

There were these little kids who played

a game called “ The stone bridge”.

They would all be singing: “The stone

bridge has fallen down / The water

came and took it away “.

There was nothing sad or dramatic

about their game, because we would all

be reunited under the fallowing oath:

“We would build another one

downstream/ Another one more lasting /

And more beautiful than you’ve ever

seen!”

Fighting with Youth

Unemployment

The Fight against Youth Unemployment should be taken between School, Society and the Government. Each of these entities admits directly or veiledly the failure for providing opportunities, hopes and new horizons for the young people.

Better Life for Young People

The method

reduction to a contradiction (a way

to prove something in mathematics)

helped us in finding a lot of

similarities between an individual’s

life cycle and a product’s life cycle.

The most convincing one is that the

individual has to be promoted and

helped in his personal and

professional development through

the modern society's specific

means.

Solutions

Water, sleep and food needs are covered by the

income obtained from a job

Family implies

material

responsibilities

Security of

morality is

generated

by education

Security of

property

implies costs,

income

Confidence is

built as a

consequence of

the social-

professional

frame

Security of

health can be

ensured though

income

Labor

legislation and

the ability of

economy and

society to

ensure jobs

Self-esteem is

built through

education

Achievement

through education,

job or own

business

Respect is

owned through

achievements

and standard of

Who wants for our PLANET to become

a HUGE SLUM?

• The City in the City should not be perceived as an enclave, but on the contrary, as an open system, without restrictions and restraints to creativity.

• Why the City in the City? Because it offers:

• - houses at accessible prices for young people;

• - possibility of open exhibitions for young artists;

• - narrowed streets that facilitate young people to meet more easily;

• It is a chance given to young people firstly in order to demonstrate for themselves that they are intellectually capable and secondly in order to bring change into the mentality shared by School, Society and the Government.

The CITY in the CITY

• Personally, the issue of youth unemployment has been our concern since we were students. After we created Redivivus Team, we focused on finding a solution within 75 hours.

• The solutions are addressed to those

young persons who want to join us in our endeanvour.

• In our mission to fight youth

unemployment we are counting on the support of Student’s organizations because among them there are the unemployed young persons of tomorrow.
