Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>The Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Recreation, in collaboration with Youth Volunteer Mauritius, launched, on Saturday 12 August 2023, the \u2018Jeunes Sapeurs Pompiers\u2019 (JSP) project, at the Co\u0302te d’Or National Sports Complex, in Co\u0302te d\u2019Or.<\/p>\n

The Minister of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Recreation, Mr Jean Christophe Stephan Toussaint, and other personalities were present on the occasion. In his address, Minister Toussaint highlighted that this initiative took place in the context of International Youth Day 2023, celebrated annually on 12 August 2023.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s theme is \u2018Green Skills for Youth: Towards A Sustainable World\u2019. Speaking about the JSP project, he underlined that many institutions have been instrumental in the undertaking of such an initiative, including the Embassy of France to Mauritius, the Mauritius Fire and Rescue Services (MFRS), the Mauritius Police Force, and the National Coast Guard, amongst others.<\/p>\n

This project, Mr Toussaint emphasised, is directly linked to Youth Volunteer Mauritius, and through this project, they aim to encourage as many young people as possible to get involved in volunteering, and to use their training and intelligence to be of service to the nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cVolunteering helps us improve our living environment so that we can live in harmony, and at the Ministry, we encourage volunteering through the implementation of several projects,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

On this score, he observed that the participants of the JSP project will be starting something historic that has never been done in the past and appealed to them to make the most of it.<\/p>\n

\u2018You are about to enter a great adventure where your name will be engraved as the first participants and the first winners of the JSP project in the Republic of Mauritius\u2019, he said.<\/p>\n

As regards the Indian Ocean Islands Games 2023, the Minister remarked that from 25 August 2023, the Games will start in Madagascar until 03 September 2023 adding that our Republic will be represented by a huge contingent of 680 persons.<\/p>\n

\u201cI appeal to the population to hoist the Mauritian flag as from 25 August 2023 on their homes and buildings in support to our athletes so as to bring energy and good vibes to them and help them bring many gold medals for Mauritius,\u201d he pointed out. About the JSP Project<\/p>\n

This project was introduced as an opportunity for young people to learn something new and to help the youths develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required in the fields of firefighting, First Aid emergency, and the protection of people, property, and the environment.<\/p>\n

Moreover, it aims to raise young people’s awareness of daily risks and initiate them into preventive measures so that they can position themselves as citizens taking responsibility for their own safety and that of others, and prepare them to join a civil protection organisation.<\/p>\n

The JSP course is structured in terms of cycles 1, 2, 3, and 4, each lasting six months. The fourth cycle is devoted to barrack training and to taking the national certificate of JSP for candidates who have failed. Training can include distance learning with part of the learning carried out in an operational environment.<\/p>\n

Following the completion of the course, a Diploma is awarded by the MFRS and the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Recreation to candidates declared by a Jury which is chaired by the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sports and Recreation.<\/p>\n
