Renault Helps Disabled Young People

French manufacturer Renault has just announced the signing of a partnership with Accompagner la Réalisation des Projets d’Etude de Jeunes Elèves et Etudiants Handicapés (ARPEJEH) to promote the employment of disabled young people. As a result, the French manufacturer promises to provide more information about its production lines and will also increase the number of internships available.

Of course, Renault hasn't missed the occasion to brag that it is the only European manufacturer which makes vehicles addressed to disabled people. As we already know, Renault Tech builds multiple such models, including Kangoo, Logan MCV, Trafic and Master.

"For young people about to leave school, careers guidance is essential: it is important to identify training opportunities and to find out more about the world of business. Disabled young people tend to lack qualifications, so support must be provided, from secondary school through to higher education," Renault said in a press statement.

"By becoming an associate member of ARPEJEH, Renault is committed to showing these young people the many activities of the automotive industry, to give them access to a network of key contacts and to promote their integration in the company by increasing the number of internships available."

The partnership between the two has been signed on the International Day of Persons and Disabilities organized by the UN, a symbolically moment that does nothing more than to emphasize Renault's commitment to helping disabled people. Together with some other big names in the auto industry, Renault has already signed several partnerships across the world to promote the recruitment and integration of disabled employees, including in Brazil, Spain and Turkey.
