C.U.S. GOALS in 1948

When the C.U.S. was created back in 1948, its main goal was to help the refugees and, among them, the many students. Its goals then extended to all young people whatever their religion, philosophy or political opinion. Other goals are the development of the spirit of solidarity towards the underprivileged, internships in social sectors in order to know the world of work better, psychological help (sponsorship by the elders), etc.

After 50 years… in 1994…
