“Formation et Sensibilisation de Luxembourg” Association was registered in
2020 on the basis of the non-formal group “Foreign Students of Luxembourg
” (FSL) which was created in 2013.
The mission of FSL is to empower young people and to develop societies based
on human rights, respect for diversity and a sense of responsibility for social
and natural environment.
The objectives and principles of the FSL are:
- To establish, promote and support social awareness of the importance of
education to build skills and capacities; - To promote education and awareness that acquires the tools of knowledge
and contributes to the development of personality; - To support the art-science dialogue as a mean and expression of a
sustainable transfer of knowledge;
-To promote intercultural, inter-religious and inter-civilization dialogue,
human rights education through the non formal education; - To consolidate the potential of youth representatives of different cultures
and subcultures for the solution of local and global problems.
