"SITP" FOR YOUNG INMATES
For the past few years, the Saradar IT Programme (SITP)ฎhas been planning on targeting
a new population group: inmates. Several difficulties not related
to Fondation Saradar had impeded the undertaking of this new
experience. Finally, the SITP was able to establish
close contacts with the administration of the rehabilitation
centre in Fanar, managed by Union pour la Protection de lEnfance
au Liban UPEL (Union for the Protection of Childhood in
Lebanon) which is entirely dedicated to juvenile delinquency.
This new initiative aims at providing juvenile delinquents with an
opportunity to acquire electronic skills and discover their
potential in order to facilitate their social and economic
reintegration. The Saradar Mobile Computer School stationed at the
premises of the Fanar Centre and offered free 18-hour training
sessions to 40 young inmates during a period of two weeks.
Certificates delivered upon completion of this initiation course
presented an asset allowing these adolescents to secure employment
and take a fresh start.
From March to April 2006, the Saradar IT Programme (SITP)ฎ
expanded its target group of beneficiaries to include, for the
second time in a row, young inmates under rehabilitation. This new
initiative aims at providing juvenile delinquents with an
opportunity to acquire electronic skills and discover their
potential in order to facilitate their social and economic
reintegration. The Saradar IT Programme (SITP) stationed within
the premises of the Rehabilitation Centre in Fanar managed by the
Union for the Protection of Childhood in Lebanon (UPEL) and
offered free 98-hour training sessions to 22 young male inmates
for a period of two weeks. Certificates delivered upon completion
of this initiation course present an asset to these boys to secure
employment and take a fresh start.
