Created in 1985, the NGO Action de Solidarité Internationale (ASI) has been working in the Republic of Congo since 2006 in Brazzaville as part of its program to support young girls in street situations and in vulnerable situations. In 2012, it extended its field of action to Pointe-Noire.

The association offers individualized support throughout the care of its beneficiaries, from prevention during patrols to their social and professional integration. This follow-up allows young girls to gradually leave the middle of the street to reintegrate into a more stable and secure environment.

The care of these young girls therefore consists of several components:

• Mobile and Health team : the association carries out patrols to meet vulnerable young women and guide them according to their medical, social and professional needs.
• Hosting : the association manages day centers and offers young women literacy workshops, educational and prevention activities around health topics.
• Training and Empowerment : the association conducts business discovery activities. It supports beneficiaries and helps them choosing a training and professional integration project.

It is on this last aspect that the teams of Bolloré Transports and Logistics Congo support 30 young girls in street situations, through short and technical training but also internships. For 5 years, the commitment of our local teams alongside the NGO A.S.I has enabled these young girls to lead their own life journey towards social and professional reintegration.
