Flagship Program
ATHAR: Sustainable Investment in Youth Human Capital
ATHAR provides a structured framework for companies aiming to realize their CSR and ESG commitments in Algeria through direct youth empowerment, in line with national priorities set out in the draft National Youth Plan 2026-2029, presented to the Council of Ministers in March 2026.
A program that adapts to each cohort
The program’s core objectives remain constant: stronger self-awareness, communication, cooperation, critical judgment, and the ability to take action. The language, vocabulary, examples, activities, pace, and materials are adapted to the actual profile of each cohort.
ATHAR can be delivered entirely in Algerian Darija when this supports understanding. French and English are required only when justified by the cohort’s objectives and announced before participant selection.
- Targeted Cohorts (Ages 18-25): constant objectives — stronger self-awareness, communication, cooperation, critical judgment, and the ability to take action.
- Tripartite Synergies: balanced collaboration between the Corporate Sponsor, the ATHAR team, and the Local Structure / NGO.
- Impact Measurement Reports: Outcome indicators and evaluation deliverables that can support the company’s CSR reporting.

About Hamdi
Understanding Needs, Acting with Purpose
“Entrepreneurship is not the only pathway. Before starting a business or seeking a job, young people must first develop strong core capabilities and real agency.”
I am Hamdi Sellami, a youth capacity building specialist based in Algeria.
Since 2012, I design, lead, and evaluate programs helping young people build self-awareness, exercise judgment, communicate, cooperate, and translate ideas into action. To date, I have led more than 17 programs reaching over 5,400 young people aged 15–25 directly, with more than $1M in corporate funding and grants managed across these programs. My background spans international organizations and independent consulting across exchange, mentorship, participation, and personal growth projects nationwide.
Today, I support businesses, non-profits, and educational institutions in creating meaningful, measurable youth initiatives. This vision is embodied in ATHAR, my flagship program enabling companies to invest sustainably in youth human capital as part of their CSR and ESG commitments.
My approach is simple: understand community needs, select the most effective interventions, engage the right partners, and rigorously measure real outcomes.

As expected, students talked about how transformative the workshop was.”
