Arkema continues its commitment to Sport dans la Ville by becoming a major partner of the French association. Arkema's priority is to support the "Job dans la Ville" program, in line with its values of inclusion and solidarity.
Arkema has been a partner of Sport dans la Ville since 2019. During three years, the Group has supported the "L dans la Ville" social and professional integration program for young girls.
In 2022 alone more than 2,400 young girls from disadvantaged districts were supported.

With the signing of a new agreement in January, Arkema decided to strengthen its support to Sport dans la Ville for the next three years by co-constructing a partnership for the "Job dans la ville" program, which is present in the four French regions where the association operates.
Aligned with the Group's values, this program fights for the social and professional integration of young people from disadvantaged districts. In 2022, more than 2,300 young people aged 14 to 25 were supported in this way.

Sport dans la Ville fully involves Arkema and its employees in the program by offering to sponsor the young people in the program, lead English conversation classes or host them on internships, work- study or VIE programs.
Site visits and workshops to prepare for the professional world will also be part of the partnership.

The extension of this partnership is a natural fit with our beliefs, our commitment to sport and our values of inclusion and solidarity. We are very happy to continue to support the young people of ‘Sport dans la ville’ in their social and professional integration.”
"The ‘Job dans la Ville’ program was created to address the problem of unequal access to training and employment for young people from priority neighborhoods, and to combat school dropout. By reaffirming its commitment to the association, Arkema is becoming a key partner that young people can continue to rely on to help them discover careers in science and industry, and benefit from professional opportunities that will help them move forward on the road to success. This is a great opportunity!"
