Answer:
France is trialling a new national service programme for 15 and 16-year-olds, twenty years after the country phased out conscription for men.
Called the “service national universel” (SNU), the scheme was proposed by French president Emmanuel Macron, reports France 24. It will see thousands of teenagers spend 10 days learning key skills like map reading and first aid.
Wearing navy uniforms, the first group of 2,000 volunteers will take over boarding schools, holiday villages and university campuses. Each morning they will sing the French national anthem, and gain direct exposure to military-style life.
Later this summer, the recruits will take part in collective projects such as volunteering for charity work or local government.
