6 Anta Mbow / Senegal hope for the girls of Dakar The Empire des Enfants Centre works to reintegrate disadvantaged, vulnerable boys in Senegal. The association s president, Anta Mbow, is currently embarking on a project to build a new centre for young girls who have serious family or social problems. The concept For 10 years, the Empire des Enfants Centre has been working to care for and reintegrate street children in Dakar. The centre currently accommodates only boys but it sees young girls every day only to have to send them to other organizations. The goal is to create a new centre 6 Empire des filles Centre Candidate : Anta Mbow Project objective: Build a shelter for young girls suffering severe hardship. Beneficiaries: Accommodations for 10 young girls aged 10 and over. The length of their stay will be determined on a case-by-case basis. exclusively for young girls who are having serious problems at home or in society and need to be removed from their living situation and provided with special assistance. The goal The Empire des Filles Centre (Girls Empire) will be the first shelter in Dakar designed just for girls who are victims of violence and exploitation and are in extremely insecure situations. Its primary mission will be to take in and care for these young girls by restoring their dignity and position in society. It is for the most vulnerable young girls in Dakar, and will not discriminate on the basis of social, ethnic, cultural or religious status. The young girls will be referred by the court. With an institutional framework suited to their needs, they will be physically and legally protected and regain security and confidence. The Girls Empire will be open to all of the troubled girls in Dakar who need support and advice. No one will be turned away. The future Initially, the centre will be able to accommodate 10 young girls. Their length of stay will be determined based on their individual situation. When the situation requires integrating girls back into their families, the objective will be refocused on dialogue and mediation.
7 Brigitte Michel / Mauritius - Indian Ocean restore confidence in women at-risk Most of the female drug addicts in Mauritius are both infected with HIV and are victims of social isolation. Those that manage to escape their situation are rejected by their peers and society. Assistance in reintegrating society is essential for this marginalized population. The concept People who use drugs and attend a methadone-based drug rehab programme need psychological and social support so they can escape their situation. There is a lack of any real infrastructure to accommodate them and their families. In 2009, Brigitte Michel founded A.I.L.E.S (Assistance, Information, Freedom, Hope, Solidarity) as a prevention and treatment initiative. The goal The project aims to develop activities that help women who have stopped using drugs to secure and acquire job skills by providing them support to start a micro-business in their local area. The women will receive training to teach them how to manage a budget and handle administrative processes, manufacture a highquality local product, etc. The other component of the project will be focused on educating women about their rights and the risks of domestic violence, drugs and HIV. The ultimate, and most important goal is to restore their confidence and hope! The future Rehabilitate and then reintegrate 75 women into society. Make it easier for these women to start new businesses. In the long term, establish a prevention campaign aimed at young people on the dangers of drugs and HIV. A.I.L.E.S (Assistance, Information, Freedom, Hope, Solidarity) Candidate : Brigitte Michel Project objectives: Reduce the number of new HIV-related infections in drug addicts and their families Reintegrate women who have stopped using drugs into society - Increase protection for young people and children by informing them about the dangers of drugs and HIV Beneficiaries: 75 women and their families and all young people in the Floréal region 7
8 Sarah Toumi / Tunisia Tunisian women rebuilding their country One out of every four people in Tunisia live on less than two dollars per day. The unemployment rate for women is 30%. These numbers are double in rural areas, where old-fashioned ancestral customs predominate. The concept The Acacias pour Tous (Acacias for All) project of the Ajmi Toumi association, launched in 2012, aims to improve the skills of rural women in Tunisia by giving them and their families access to education, employment, micro-loans and good social and health infrastructure. The project is supported by several initiatives that the Ajmi 8 Ajmi Toumi Association Candidate : Sarah Toumi Project objectives: Develop economic initiatives managed exclusively by women to give them independence and increase their skills Beneficiaries: 5,000 inhabitants of the Bir Salah village Toumi association has already implemented in Bir Salah, where it built the Fort of Knowledge, a club for women and children, expanded and renovated the health dispensary and the school. The goal The project aims to build a new acacia tree nursery managed by the Acacialma Cooperative, which gives women a decent standard of living with the financial proceeds from selling the Arabic Gum produced while simultaneously fighting desertification. The cooperative is entirely run by women. This helps them develop a wide range of economic activities like growing vegetables for the local market, producing honey and essential oils, and making fair-trade clothing and fashion accessories. The entire village of Bir Salah and its 5,000 inhabitants support and rally behind the project. The future The project is designed to span across all of North Africa. The 2015 objective is to reach 100,000 trees planted every year in each region to benefit 10,000 women per region and complete a total overhaul in every beneficiary village of basic infrastructures, tools and services required to make them self-sufficient. Our main goal is to make every woman a driver behind local change to generate a national movement.
9 Maria Raharinarivonirina / Madagascar make women the drivers to improve and modernise rural life The rural south is considered to be the most disadvantaged and illiterate part of Madagascar. Conditions for women in this traditional society centred around zebu cattle are especially miserable. The concept Women have no right to speak out because they are uneducated and have no property or inheritance rights. Men hold exclusive authority through their ownership of zebu cattle, which are seen as the symbol of power. This makes women completely dependent on men in a region where food insecurity is acute. SOS Children s Villages works to provide women in the area with independence and freedom in the interest of fostering holistic community development. To this end, three women s homes (Maisons des Femmes) were built to provide women with education and job skills and inform them of their rights. The goal In six small villages, renovate the three women s shelters and build and operate three new ones to combat gender discrimination and all forms of violence. There will be three phases of the program: literacy instruction for girls and women, then an awareness campaign on women s rights throughout the community. The issue of food insecurity will be addressed by training women in farming to improve their yield. This includes managing, communicating and establishing communal granaries. They may be given assistance to create incomegenerating projects, access loans, find support for their initiatives, etc. The future 810 women in six associations will receive direct training and information developed by the women s shelters. Once they gain independence and are integrated into society, they will contribute to developing the community as a whole. SOS Children s Villages Association of Madagascar Candidate : Maria Raharinarivonirina Project objective: Create three new shelters and renovate the three existing ones to provide independence for women of the zebu society in southern Madagascar Beneficiaries: The project will directly benefit 810 women 9
10 Marie Nomo Messina / Cameroon hand in hand for orphans in Cameroon The Main dans la Main (Hand in Hand) non-profit association welcomes children who have been abandoned or are experiencing severe hardship. The Romulus & Remus Centre of the association provides them with the healthcare, education and training they need to re-enter society. The concept The association makes sure that the children are protected from all types of violence or exploitation, administers specialised care to ensure their physical and psychological development and restores their self-confidence by encouraging them to continue their studies. Its mission is to teach them skills in sewing and hotel service to foster their integration back into society and entry into the working world. both girls and boys, so it requires separate facilities. The building desperately needs to be repaired and expanded so its work can continue and all the children can enjoy better living conditions and hygiene. 10 Main dans la Main (Hand in Hand) Association Candidate : Marie Nomo Messina Project objectives: Renovate the dormitories of the orphanage to improve accommodations for children, primarily girls Beneficiaries: Orphans of the centre (currently 71 children) from birth to 19 years old and above who are abandoned, ill or exploited. The goal The interior of the building has suffered water damage and has faulty electrical wiring. In particular, the dormitories are in a state of severe disrepair. In addition, the number of children has doubled, so its capacity for 50 children is not sufficient to handle the 71 children it currently houses. The orphanage also accommodates The future By expanding and renovating the centre, the Hand in Hand association aims to continue its reintegration initiative and further develop its prevention missions. With the help of professionals, the association will provide more face-to-face support for local young girls who are victims of sexual abuse and addiction.
11 the Orange Foundation acts to improve education and healthcare for African women crédit photo : Magnum photos - Susan Meiselas Since 2005, the Orange Foundation has developed corporate philanthropy programs to help women and girls in Africa. It supports projects in the African countries where Orange operates. The Foundation s conviction that women drive economic and social development has prompted it to help build and equip educational and healthcare infrastructures, provide training for teachers and healthcare workers and strive to develop women s job skills. Whenever the opportunity arises, the Foundation supports projects that use digital tools to develop healthcare and education initiatives. The Orange Foundation works closely with Orange subsidiaries in each country and partners with non-profit associations and non-governmental organizations. It selects the projects it supports based on how pragmatic and effective they are for the beneficiaries. 11
