ASSOCIATION FOR CHILDREN AT RISK

Since 1984, Planète Enfants & Développement has only one ambition: to give a chance to children in danger in Asia and Africa to grow, to bloom and to pass on.

Why Planète Enfants & Développement?

Extreme poverty forces many parents in the world, in a situation of survival, to sacrifice the education of their children. Millions of children will not go to nursery or school because their parents are excluded from society, because they live too far away or simply because these institutions do not exist.

Where they do exist, in some areas of Asia and Africa, educators and teachers are poorly trained, sometimes unpaid. It is not uncommon for them to have no school materials or to have poor quality materials.

Many countries have understood the importance of protecting and educating children, but they are often faced with a lack of human and financial resources. The most marginalized populations are not always aware of the services to which they are entitled and the laws that apply. These same laws are sometimes flouted by the weight of tradition.

For Planète Enfants & Développement, exclusion, discrimination, neglect and abuse of children are unacceptable.

Respect for rights, gender equality and the environment

Operating costs limited to 15% of the budget

As a human-sized NGO, Planète Enfants & Développement works in partnership with local populations and actors to guarantee the relevance of projects, their autonomy and their impact. It seeks efficiency and results, while being in a process of permanent progress.
