Dé-chiffrons les migrations
Having means to combat prejudices
Due to a global geopolitical context which constantly stigmatizes the most vulnerable populations, the immigrant people are particularly exposed to prejudices and they are still too often discriminated against because of common beliefs.
In order to fight the resistances and growth of these prejudices, acting alongside young generations allows building the foundations of a tolerant and inclusive society. Young people need to have information within a context and reference points on immigration issues. Their abilities to understand migration phenomenon and to act as enlightened citizens depend upon that.
Through ‘Dé-chiffrons les migrations’ project, we provide tools to volunteers and professional associative members so they can plan discussions and exchange sessions with young people and implement awareness actions on migration issues.
SAARA
Sharing our knowledge, strengthening our actions
Since the 90’s, Algerian organizations are very committed around the questions of access to rights for the most vulnerable people, especially in the social field. Progressively, they have built a real ‘savoir-faire’ and reliability in the eyes of the populations and local authorities.
Nevertheless, these organizations are often still not involved in local development politics and they have difficulties sustaining their actions in the long term.
SAARA project aims at promoting Algerian organizations’ key role and encouraging their integration into local dialogue process.
E’Changeons
Working together to fight discrimination
Many activist organizations based in the Ile-de-France region and working for gender equality support the implementation of efficient actions to reduce inequalities. However, those organizations experience difficulties when it comes to promoting their actions because they don’t have the tools to assess their impact and the changes they generate.
For the past ten years, we have contributed to empower our Mediterranean partners in the field of women’s socio-economic integration and/or professional equality. Thanks to this experience and partnership, we have developed a ‘savoir-faire’ in terms of monitoring-evaluation. The aim of the E’Changeons project is to make the tools and methods of analysis we have developed available to the Ile-de-France organizations working on promoting equality.
Besides, E’Changeons project highlights the reciprocity between our Mediterranean and Ile-de-France partners. They indeed work together on an advocacy document, based on their respective field of experience, in order to deconstruct gender stereotypes.
FORM’Algérie
Empowering Algerian organizations
During Algeria’s black decade (the 90’s), the associative movement was very much weakened. For the past ten years, the civil society organisations are making their voices heard again, and many others have emerged in the social field. Their actions are essential to face the urgent issues on the field, even though they often don’t last because of volunteers’ turnover and lack of resources.
Through the FORM’Algérie project, we provide training intended for civil society organisations. Throughout the first project’s period, young associative managers were trained to become trainers as well. Today, they are able to train other organisations working in their respective local area (Adrar, Algiers, Akbou, Constantine, El Oued and Oran).
Achieved in February 2016, those actions continue through the SAARA project.

INNOV'Asso
Supporting young people towards associative sector jobs
In Algeria, the 18-35 years-old generations represent 70% of the national population and are much more affected by unemployment than the older generations. Almost 1 over 4 young people don’t have a job, even though the unemployment rate of the entire active population is about 10%. Poverty and the informal economy are increasing whereas the associative sector’s potential in terms of professional integration is still unknown and underestimated by young Algerian people.
However, working within civil society organizations demands many skills (administrative and financial management, project coordination, socio-educative mediation…) that can serve a lot of business fields like renewable energies, professional training, digital technologies, tourism, sports and leisure or even health. Those activity sectors have been identified as priorities by the Algerian government and they are precisely the activity sectors Algerian organizations have invested. Identified by the Algerian government as priority sectors for employment, these sectors are precisely the ones in which numerous Algerian associations are most renowned for.
In partnership with the GRDR and two local organizations, we have been working since 2016 to support local initiatives in Oran and Khenchela. We have notably working on the creation of a toolkit on associative jobs and a directory for organizations. This approach aims at clarifying professional opportunities in the associative sector and at promoting its different jobs for young people and the Algerian employment structures.
