[Automatic translation follows] Luxembourg NGO-D committed to promoting the quality of life of the most vulnerable African communities
The Follereau Foundation is a Luxembourg NGO-D committed to promoting the quality of life of the most vulnerable African communities. Alongside its trusted partners, it supports local, inclusive and positive initiatives in response to the needs on the ground in terms of health, education, protection and emergency.
Since 1966, the foundation has, in fact, evolved with the times by developing its activities beyond its initial fight against the exclusion caused by the disease of leprosy. Over the years, the actions carried out have thus extended to the strengthening of local capacities and infrastructures, as well as to raising awareness among the populations. Through its projects, the foundation works to respect fundamental rights and therefore contributes to the achievement of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the United Nations for the 2030 Agenda. It ensures that the projects it supports are initiated by its local partners, according to the needs expressed by the population. The projects exist for and by the community, which helps to guarantee their impact and sustainability.

ONG-D luxembourgeoise engagée pour la promotion de la qualité de vie des communautés africaines les plus vulnérables
La Fondation Follereau est une ONG-D luxembourgeoise engagée pour la promotion de la qualité de vie des communautés africaines les plus vulnérables. Aux côtés de ses partenaires de confiance, elle soutient des initiatives locales, inclusives et positives en réponse aux besoins du terrain en matière de santé, d’éducation, de protection et d’urgence.
Depuis 1966, la fondation a, en effet, évolué avec son temps en développant ses activités au-delà de sa lutte initiale contre l’exclusion provoquée par la maladie de la lèpre. Au fil des années, les actions menées se sont ainsi étendues au renforcement des capacités et des infrastructures locales, ainsi qu’à la sensibilisation des populations. Par le biais de ses projets, la fondation œuvre au respect des droits fondamentaux et contribue, dès lors, à la concrétisation des 17 objectifs du développement durable (ODD), fixés par les Nations Unies pour l’Agenda 2030. Elle veille à ce que les projets qu’elle appuie soient initiés par ses partenaires locaux, selon les besoins exprimés par la population. Les projets existent pour et par la communauté, ce qui permet d’en garantir l’impact et la pérennité.
