The seventh edition of "Street Opportunity" kicked off on Saturday, September 19, 2026, at the City of Culture in Tunis. The two-day event brings together various public institutions, national and international organizations to provide young people with information on education, higher education, vocational training, employment, and entrepreneurship opportunities. This initiative, led by the Tunisian Agency for Employment and Independent Work, in collaboration with the Tunisian-German Center for Migration and Development, seeks to facilitate access to available opportunities and support youth in their academic and professional pursuits.
The event features a range of activities, including a "labyrinth of opportunities" with various stations where young people can gather information on different fields. The Tunisian-German Center for Migration and Development provides free information on the German job market, including sectors with labor shortages and required specialties. Additionally, the center offers guidance on necessary conditions and procedures for accessing these opportunities, such as learning the German language and validating certificates and diplomas.
The "Street Opportunity" event aims to bridge the gap between young people and available opportunities. According to organizers, the challenge often lies not in the lack of opportunities but in accessing relevant information. The event provides a platform for direct communication between young people and advisors, facilitating the process of finding suitable paths for their academic and professional development.
The Tunisian-German Center for Migration and Development offers ongoing support to young people beyond the event. Located at the Tunisian Agency for Employment and Independent Work in the Lafayettes area, the center provides individual counseling and guidance tailored to each young person's skills, academic level, and career aspirations.
The Ministry of Youth and Sports has contributed to the organization of "Street Opportunity" by inviting young people from various institutions, particularly those outside the education and training systems, to participate in the event. The ministry's goal is to connect young people with relevant structures that can provide guidance and support.
The event includes a virtual experience that simulates the process of moving to Germany, from searching for information to integration. Workshops are also offered on topics such as studying and vocational training in Germany, the legal framework for working abroad, and preparing for job interviews.
Key stakeholders have emphasized the importance of "Street Opportunity" in providing young people with accessible information and a platform to connect with relevant institutions. The event has attracted participants from various regions, including Zaghwan, Nabul, and Bizerte.
