Work and development - AMU

Work and development

In countries where economic difficulties are higher, AMU offers programs that aim at increasing basic income based on the skills and goals of the people involved, focusing on the most vulnerable people and communities.

Thanks to the cooperation with local partners, AMU is trying to build programs to give every single person the opportunity to have a proper life as an employee or creating a small company. Such activities must be acceptable, reliable, and yield a fair income.

We have implemented specific strategies and tools to create jobs that improve dignity and are more inclusive thanks to the collaboration with companies of the Economy of Communion. These strategies were created with the inception of Economy of Communion and have improved in the last 10 years.

It is not possible to reach all of these goals with a single project, but with a range of programs aiming at improving professional abilities, giving job orientation, helping companies to find new funding, and helping start-ups.
