Groupe SOS celebrates 40 years of mobilisation by launching a year dedicated to social cohesion. Far from being an idealistic notion, it’s the driving force behind everything we do.
A major consultation to collectively build a better future
What are the priority issues we need to tackle, from the field to public debate? What model of society for tomorrow? What future for social entrepreneurship? What new battles should we engage in?
For its 40th anniversary, Groupe SOS is not only celebrating the past, but also looking to the future. To do so, we are launching a major consultation to gather ideas and concrete proposals from all its teams, voluntaries, beneficiaries and partners, with a view to building collectively a fair and sustainable future and strengthening community cohesion, which is at the heart of our mission.
The objective? To give a voice to a diverse range of people and present bold, concrete solutions in the form of a future action programme, aimed at informing both public policies, initiatives from civil society and the corporate sector.
This major consultation is aimed at a French-speaking audience.
Testimonies and reports from the field
For 40 years, and in an increasingly fragmented world, Groupe SOS has been dedicated to building a fairer, more caring and welcoming society.
Amidst social, economic and environmental challenges, we have consistently chosen to embrace diversity rather than give in to uniformity.
With a unique model, that blends the dynamism of association with the innovation of social entrepreneurship, Groupe SOS brings together thousands of people around high-impact and innovative projects.
Groupe SOS comprises 22,000 dedicated professionals who work tirelessly to support the most vulnerable, empower future generations and uplift regions. Throughout this year, we will be sharing their stories – along with those of the people they have cared for- reflecting the essence of who we are and what we stand for.
