The UN Sustainable Development Goals underline the importance of local communities' involvement in development projects and Tanzania is one of the countries affected by these goals. Tanzania faces high poverty, 80% of the population lives on less than USD 2 a day, or less than 1 euro 60 according to France Diplomacy.
We work in the north of the country in the regions of Arusha, Kilimanjaro and more precisely for the Maasai community, because the Congregation of the Holy Spirit, from which the initiator of the project comes, has been present in the country since 1865. Committed in particular to the education and health of communities, it is now a regulatory and unifying body at the local level. Jean-Pascal LOMBART, initiator of the project and who led it four years in France, has established since the 1990s, as part of his missionary work, a solid network of active and trusted people among the inhabitants.
Our main focus is on children protected by the International Convention on the Rights of the Child, signed and ratified by Article 23 by Tanzania, which commits "mentally or physically disabled children to lead lives full and decent, in conditions that guarantee their dignity, promote their autonomy and facilitate their active participation in the life of the community." Our priority therefore concerns their situation of disability because it is a situation very little addressed in this part of the world or even poorly accepted by the Maasai community.
Within the Congregation of Missionaries of the Holy Spirit, the Spiritans; 30 rue Lhomond 75005 Paris.
preparation in four weekends will take place on December 1 and 2, February 9 and 10, March 9 and 10, May 11 and 12.
