Solution

Trouve Ta Voix is committed to equal opportunity by providing long-term support to young people from the most disadvantaged backgrounds in their professional integration and the revelation of their potential through public speaking through various training programs.

The "Introduction to speaking" programs are aimed at 4th and 10th grade students from priority public schools, and are based on an innovative teaching approach that enables each student to express themselves in a caring environment, in order to: 
- reveal their potential; 
- gain self-confidence;
- open up their field of possibilities;
- take their place in society and contribute to a better way of living together.

Students deliver their speeches, individually or collectively, at events (speaking competition and Les collégiens ont la parole festival) in symbolic and prestigious locations in the Cité.

With the 2024-2025 school year off to a flying start and us getting ready to intervene in over 100 4th and 2nd grade classes in Île-de-France and Occitanie, let's take a look back at our restitution events last June:

  • The 1st edition of the "Les Collégiens ont la parole" festival at the Théâtre de la Concorde, on June 3, 2024: 300 4th graders, beneficiaries of the Trouve Ta Voix program, gathered to listen to stories prepared in class and debate, during agora times, social issues that affect them.

  • The final of our high school eloquence competition in the Salle des Fêtes of the Académie du Climat, on June 13, 2024: 7 10th graders, finalists in our competition, spoke on the subject "What binds us together?" before a jury made up of the three rectors of the Paris region. Congratulations to Fatoumata, Nour, Élodie, Maïmouna, Océane, Lina and Théodore!

Why we love it?

Trouve Ta Voix offers an innovative training program for the most disadvantaged young people, teaching them the art of speaking so that they can regain their self-confidence and find their place in society. Don't miss the video of the final of the 2023 competition at the Château de Versailles!

Yes, we all have a voice, and we express it differently. We need to share it, and share our opinions now or in the future, in civic debates. We can change things by speaking out.
