participate in a more humane and fairer world

IFF Europe, Angers, France

IFF EUROPE in Angers, which has existed for more than thirty years, is an Institute of Higher Education, an associated center of the Catholic University of the West.

Coming out of the baccalaureate, or in the process of higher education, a large number of students find it difficult to discern the continuation of their course, to choose a course that makes sense and mobilizes their energy.

The dropout rate in France is a strong symptom of this difficulty in projecting and orienting oneself. The school system also produces many struggling students in a mode of learning that does not build on their strengths.

The major upheavals we are experiencing (changes in the professional world, imbalances in our societies and our planet, acceleration of time) make the future uncertain and it can be difficult for a young person to plan ahead.

Our system of society does not always help them to build confidence in their resources, to become aware of their values, to be able to think about this changing world and to consider themselves as actors in it.

It is essential to help them regain confidence in themselves, in their future, in their ability to act with hope and competence, in order to be part of those who participate in a more humane and just world.

The training courses offered

IFF Europe offers training in two main areas:  orientation / reorientation  (for students who stop or question themselves) and ethics / solidarity:
