JINC fights for a society where your background does not determine your future. Where every child gets opportunities. To achieve this, JINC helps children from 8 to 16 years old to get a good start in the job market. Through the JINC program, children get to know various professions, discover which work suits their talents, and learn how to apply for jobs.
