SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL (SI) is an international humanitarian aid association that, for over 40 years, has been providing relief to populations affected by armed conflicts and natural disasters by meeting their basic needs, such as food, water, and shelter. Particularly committed to combating diseases linked to unsafe water, the world's leading cause of death, SI's interventions leverage expertise in the areas of access to drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene promotion, as well as in the essential area of food security and livelihoods. Present in 26 countries, SI's teams—a total of 3,200 people, including expatriates, national employees, permanent staff at headquarters, and a few volunteers—operate with professionalism and commitment while respecting cultures.
Since March 2020, SI has been working in France to improve the living conditions of very precarious populations "not connected" to primary services such as drinking water, sanitation, and electricity, making them particularly vulnerable. Our projects target populations living in degraded housing sites such as shantytowns, camps, or squats, who have very limited and often informal access to these basic services.
