The Fondation pour L’Enfance Terre de Paix was established to meet the felt needs of people, mainly focusing on children. Today, the action of the association remains in line with its original aim: to combat poverty and its resulting consequences on the most vulnerable groups of society, particularly children, in a non-discriminatory way through the child’s rights approach. The foundation was constructed around 30 years ago and now manages around 30 beneficiaries consisting of children and families
