ASMAE

Overview

Asmae is a French international solidarity NGO specialized in child development. Independent, nonreligious and non-political, it is open to everyone. Created in 1980 by Sister Emmanuelle following her experience with the poorest people of Egypt’s slums, Asmae keeps on respecting its founder’s values and methods: listening and proximity, pragmatism, respect of the differences, professionalism and reciprocity.

Nowadays Asmae supports education and protection projects through local organizations in France,
Burkina-Faso, Egypt, Lebanon, Madagascar, and the Philippines. Furthermore, in France, Asmae also
directly manages a mother and childcare center.
