Why did Juliette, 23, choose civic service?

A few months before the presidential election, what do the young people of our country think? What are their dreams, aspirations, fears? What does their daily life look like? What is their view of the campaign and the upcoming election? Who are the 15-25 year olds really? You have to meet them, question them, listen to them. Far from clichés, give voice to this generation too often described as sacrificed, irresponsible or disenchanted.

Preparatory classes and Grandes Ecoles

the podcast Place for young people aims to highlight French youth in its diversity, through interviews with young people under the age of 25. For this tenth episode, interview with Juliette, 23 years old.

Juliette grew up in Cahors (Occitanie) and studied engineering in Toulouse, before choosing civic service in the association PicoJoule, which develops small methanisation facilities for the production of fertilizers and biogas. The young woman lives with a roommate in the “Pink City”. She is committed more than anything – in associations, but also, for example, by touring France to alternative places to learn from them best practices. With Juliette, we are going to talk about ecology, of course, universal income and transmission, too.

A direct, personal, uninhibited interview with the boys and girls who make up today’s France, led by Salomé Berlioux, founder and general manager of the association Chemins d’avenirs. It accompanies several thousand young people in the construction of their academic, professional and civic career. This podcast is broadcast in partnership with 20 minutes, West France and the Jean-Jaurès Foundation.
