In the south :

Our projects concern the vital sectors of agriculture, training, employment and health. The involve the development of small-scale industry and production in order to promote independence for local populations. The programmes undertaken must ensure the development of local resources for local needs.

These projects benefit the most deprived populations :

• Young people and marginalized women
• Native peoples and tribes
• Small farmers and those without land

Our modul operandi :

• Professional training of the local population (from teaching literacy, to teaching skills and a job).
• Income-generating activities (agriculture, craft industries, etc.).
• Developing micro-credit (administration, Self Help Groups for women and farmers, etc.).
• Improving existing production facilities (ovens, composting systems, etc.).
• Developing organic and community farming (vegetable gardens, local crops, cereals).
• Protecting natural resources (reforestation, water and soil conservation, etc.).
• Building and renovating (training centres, processing centres, storage areas, kitchens, etc.).
• Making materials available (for training : manuals and tools).

Thanks to the exchange of knowledge and skills we can work together to produce reasoned development, meeting the needs of each individual while respecting his/her culture.
