With regard to the specific measures:
Internships
- Non-curricular internships give young people the chance to train and prepare for the labour market. Regione Toscana co-funds non-curricular internships. The target group is young people 18 to 29 year olds. Direct beneficiaries: Companies throughout Regione Toscana co-fund the internships.
- Curricular Internships and Professional Apprenticeships: Unlike non-curricular internships, companies or public bodies in Tuscany are not obliged to pay internees still in formal education, such as studying for a primary degree, a post-graduate master degree, a PhD or an apprenticeship to learn a profession. However, in order to promote paid internships during education, Regione Toscana provides €300 to the companies or public bodies that give at least €500 to young internees.
Housing
- In order to help young people to move out from their parents’ homes and become independent, Regione Toscana contributes towards a young people’s rent. The level of contribution varies from €150 to €350 a month for 3 years, according to the young person’s income and whether they have children.
- The target group is young people aged between 18 and 34, who have been living at home in Tuscany for the past 2 years.

- The target group is young people aged between 18 and 29.
Education and Training
- To support the right of young people to education, training, learning and specialisation, a series of incentives, such as vouchers, scholarships, vocational education work programmes, have been put in place in order to endorse talent and commitment.
Entrepreneurship
- To make it easier for young people to start a business, Regione Toscana implemented different lines of intervention in the field of entrepreneurship. In particular, Regione Toscana supports the start-up and the enterprise stabilization, giving grants to cover expenses and by promoting micro-credits initiatives.
