Country context <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire has a population of 31 million, 40% of whom are under 15. The country is marked by significant ethnic, cultural, and linguistic diversity, with more than 60 ethnic groups living together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the politico-military crises of the 2000\u20132011 period, the country experienced stability and economic growth, fostering a return to a more peaceful social environment. However, rapid urbanization\u2014particularly in Abidjan\u2014has created growing inequalities between urban and rural areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Young people make up a large share of the population, which energizes society but also intensifies employment challenges. The northern part of the country, more rural and less developed than the south, faces issues related to poverty, lack of infrastructure, and limited access to health and education services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most people rely on agriculture, cross-border trade, or the informal economy. The region is also affected by sensitive security dynamics due to its proximity to the Sahel. Despite this, community cohesion remains strong, supported by influential traditional structures and a strong sense of local solidarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le projet alphab\u00e9tisation & couture (programme Alpha-Couture)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Initi\u00e9 d\u00e8s 2020 et toujours en cours, ce programme pilote vise \u00e0 l\u2019autonomisation financi\u00e8re des jeunes filles via la formation \u00e0 la couture, des cours d\u2019alphab\u00e9tisation et de gestion de micro-entreprise. Les jeunes filles apr\u00e8s 24 mois de formation et de stage chez des ma\u00eetres couturiers obtiennent un dipl\u00f4me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of their training, the trainees\u201456 to date\u2014are able to run a small business, the key to achieving financial autonomy. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

We provide each trainee with a sewing machine\u2014sometimes donated by local entrepreneurs or village communities\u2014which becomes theirs permanently after two years of practice. Villages need seamstresses, and this activity is economically viable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les jeunes gens sont de surcroit incluses dans la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 et quittent l\u2019\u00e9conomie informelle qui gangr\u00e8nent les r\u00e9gions du nord de la C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Deux r\u00e9gions frontali\u00e8res b\u00e9n\u00e9ficient de ce programme qui a touch\u00e9 pr\u00e8s de 71 jeunes filles \u00e0 ce jour. A Tengrela, avec l\u2019Association des Jeunes Visionnaires de la C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire (AJV-CI). A Doropo avec l\u2019association Les Flamboyants.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ces projets sont devenus pilotes pour la r\u00e9gion. Ces actions ont \u00e9t\u00e9 soutenues par la Guilde et la Fondation Agir sa Vie – Fondation de France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is currently continuing in Doropo for the 2026\/2027 cycle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Nomadic Health Project in Doropo<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n


Des \u00e9quipes nomades d’agents de sant\u00e9 visitent les villages \u00e9loign\u00e9s dans la r\u00e9gion de T\u00e9hini et Doropo afin d\u2019apporter des premiers secours et \u00e9vacuer le cas \u00e9ch\u00e9ant les cas m\u00e9dicaux les plus graves vers l\u2019h\u00f4pital de r\u00e9f\u00e9rence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ces programmes sont essentiels pour les populations frontali\u00e8res dont les services publics sont inexistants. Ce programmes touche pr\u00e8s de 1.000 patients par an et le Dr Juliette Elie, m\u00e9decin r\u00e9f\u00e9rent de Solinfo, intervient r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement pour aider au diagnostic et solutions \u00e0 mettre en oeuvre dans les centres de soins tenus par les Flamboyants \u00e0 Doropo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With support from Ordre de Malte France, we have trained around twenty nurses who now serve on the front line. The program will continue and will be complemented by a prevalence and prevention study on sickle-cell disease, with support from Necker Hospital in Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
