FCV Sverige is a social enterprise strengthening young people's motivation and faith in the future through game-based learning tools.

Across Sweden, many young people lose motivation for studies or drop our of the education system entirely. This often leads to isolation, low self-esteem, and long-term exclusion from education and the labour market. Traditional support systems often fail to reach these individuals, leaving them without tools or pathways to re-engage with learning and future opportunities.

FCV Sverige tackles this problem by helping young people feel more motivated and hopeful about the future, using game-based and creative learning tools. Young people help create these tools, making sure they are relevant and engaging. The method brings together game culture, teaching, and guidance in a way that is easy to use, even for those who have had trouble fitting in at school or work.

The idea of “By young people, for young people” is at the heart of what FCV Sverige does. Young adults help design learning tools and lead courses, which build trust and understanding with other young people. FCV Sverige creates game-based resources like board games and digital tools, which are used in guidance sessions, group activities, and workshops. These are not just for fun; they’re made to boost motivation to study, encourage participation, and build confidence for the future.

Independent reviews, including from Mötesplats Social Innovation, show that FCV Sverige’s approach helps young people feel better about themselves, reduces isolation, and creates new opportunities. Internal results also show that most participants continue to further their studies or find jobs after finishing the programmes.

The goal is to expand these methods and tools so that schools, employers, and organisations across Sweden can use them. This will help create more inclusive places where more young people can succeed in school and at work.

Many young people both want and can succeed, but they lack the right tools and a context where they feel at home. When learning becomes meaningful and fun, new futures open.
