QUI SOMMES-NOUS? PRESENTATION DE L’INSTITUT

POLE a été le nom choisi afin de conserver tout son sens à l’Institut. En effet, POLE est un mot Swahili (langue commune du Kivu) qui est utilisé pour consoler une personne qui a été éprouvée ou affligée. Toutefois, ce mot contient aussi un sens dynamique visant à fournir de l’énergie à la personne éprouvée afin qu’elle sorte vite de sa peine et qu’elle améliore sa situation. La traduction la plus simpliste de ce mot pourrait être « désolé » et  » tu y arriveras.

African Regional Youth Initiative ARYI

Formed in December 2003, the African Regional Youth Initiative ARYI works with over 400 youth and community-based organizations across Africa addressing development issues outlined in the United Nation’s Millennium Development Goals- namely, poverty and hunger, HIV/AIDS and malaria, primary education, gender equity, child mortality, maternal health, and environmental sustainability. The work of ARYI is based on action plans developed by over twenty ARYI country and regional teams.

The organization not only empowers individuals and communities, but also nurtures the exchange of knowledge and capacity between entities through programmatic partnerships with regional organizations and networks. Direct community engagement and support mechanisms ensuring both sustainability and quality programming set ARYI’s work apart.

FairTradeNet Association

(Their site exists also in other international languages).

FairTradeNet is the only non-profit online service procurement organization that distinguishes committed, high quality freelance workers from those who ‘just want to get the job done’.

Our freelancers have been subjected to stringent tests of credibility, integrity, motivation and professionalism, to ensure that their clients receive a service that is fair and worth every cent.

Unlike other procurement organizations, FairTradeNet does not force providers to lower prices as this only induces freelancers to cut corners and deliver substandard jobs – a situation no quality-conscious client can accept.
