Our action
From emergency aid to reconstruction
SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL carries
out its humanitarian programmes in emergency situations when tens or hundreds
of thousands of human beings are under serious threat from hunger, thirst,
cold, disease, injury and neglect.
At first, our action consists in providing EMERGENCY RELIEF
to the endangered populations. As soon as conditions permit, we continue
our action with projects enabling the RECONSTRUCTION
of infrastructures. Then, if necessary, we carry out projects to revitalise
agriculture or fishing, and other food security activities, in order to
accompany affected populations on road back to autonomy and self-sufficiency.
Our expertise in the field of access to drinking water and sanitation
is at the forefront of our combat against water-borne diseases, the most
frequent cause of death worldwide.

supply networks
