Embark is a unique initiative in Turkey and Netherlands, bringing together high-level business leaders, refugees, and host community youth. The program offers various activities to exchange ideas, develop understanding, increase skills and build meaningful connections.
We aim to create an empowered community of inspirational business and youth leaders to foster social cohesion and economic inclusion through each cohort.
The youth participating in the initiative receive first-hand work experience and develop the cultural insights and soft skills needed to succeed.
By personally engaging with this talented refugee, migrant and host community youth, business leaders gain fresh perspectives, improve leadership skills and increase awareness about the refugee youth. The benefits are not only cross-cultural but also cross-generational.
By widely sharing the Embark story, we reverse the narrative about refugees.
