The society was founded this year by merging five student societies all of which act in the area of humanitarian aid and solidarity.
Bout du Monde,
Les Enfants d’Apsara,
Equiterre,
Perspectiv’ and
Teranga all work on humanitarian and social projects: tutoring, sustainable development or humanitarian missions abroad.
This merger has resulted from the desire to combine these actions within a single multi-campus international humanitarian society. The objective is thus to gain visibility, recognition and effectiveness both within SKEMA and outside the school.
HOPE has taken on five missions, three of which have an international dimension:
- help and improve life for street children and orphans in
Vietnam, Cambodia and
Senegal.
The other two goals are more local or regional:
- voluntary tutoring for schoolchildren from underprivileged backgrounds in the Lille area and other social and environmental actions (blood donation, local agriculture).
The 110 members of the society are working on setting up and funding these missions.
