Sustainable Development

On the basis of our mission and experience of more than twenty years in evangelism, especially in countries with multiple economic, social and security challenges, we understood the quote from the poet Juvenal according to which “Mens sana in corpore sano », which in English gives “a healthy mind in a healthy body”. After having noted how these challenges generate poverty which in turn constitutes not only the barrier to evangelization but also to well-being, we have thus developed the other evangelical pillar which is sustainable development, source of well-being and foundation of the expansion of the Kingdom of God. This is how we focus our actions on,We focus on:

1. Youth Empowerment
   Our youth empowerment program has four components. It is aimed at young professionals, oriented and committed to self-reliance and participation. This program includes a strong mentorship and coaching framework to help in monitoring and talent or mission driven- graduation.
   • Skills development: Alarm ministries recruits young people and supports their short training in professions according to each person's choice to make them competent and competitive on the professional job market.

In a friendly environment, youth and their caregivers work on the root causes of their addiction problems and learn how to live a healthy and positive life, free from drugs and other substances. The caregivers and support from other residents in similar situations are there to help addicted youth recover and regain their normal life.
