The psychosocial difficulties of young people are increasing in rural areas, recently exacerbated by the economic and climate crises and post-COVID disorders. They widen inequalities, preventing them from accessing quality jobs. Rural areas of the SUDOE, on the contrary, benefit from unique environmental conditions, conducive to the practice of outdoor sports. Today recognized as vectors of social integration, commitment, and personal development, they promote well-being, self-improvement, and have a positive impact on mental health. A true melting pot of non-formal learning and empowerment, they constitute, beyond their strong and positive image, a privileged lever for social inclusion for young people. Our common challenge is to boost the employability of young people in difficulties by effectively improving their life skills with an experiential social innovation program based on nature sports in the SUDOE area. Drawing a parallel with employment/job search situations, this will allow them to acquire new socio-professional capacities, act on their well-being, but also appropriate their territory with its economic opportunities (entrepreneurship, …) to finally settle these young people in rural areas and allow them to access more qualified jobs. Faced with fragmented existing solutions, our approach will be based on existing references and will be created with specialists in professional integration and experts in the field who have demonstrated the effectiveness of outdoor sports in improving psychosocial disorders. Optimized by its transnational implementation by multidisciplinary teams, our holistic and inclusive methodology will adapt to local specificities and target audiences, scientifically validated to be transferable and reproducible in the SUDOE area and beyond. An authentic toolbox aimed at structures specialized in supporting young people experiencing difficulties in socio-professional integration, it will also benefit rural and peri-urban communities, and will offer recommendations for public policies.
