The African Center for Solidarity and Mutual Aid between Communities (CASEC | ACSAC) is an NGO created on February 15, 1997, which serves as a framework for reflection and implementation of action plans for community development in Africa. The Center commits all its forces to promote peace and cohesion among all peoples by allowing them to develop economic activities that can improve their living conditions and by carrying out a series of social actions in synergy with social organizations to maximize their impacts. . Its purpose is the sustainable and comprehensive development of all African communities.
Since 2017, the Center has established a unit dedicated exclusively to young people so that they can implement actions that allow the inclusion of young people in development programs and policies. In 2018, the Youth unit proposed the project “Young student, heart of sustainable development”. The goal of the project is youth, especially young students and doctoral students from universities and schools. This project was marked by the National Forum on Action for Sustainable Development and the Role of Youth in 2018 and the Forum for Student Youth and Sustainable Development in 2019, the establishment of Youth Talks and the SDG School.
This year, CASEC is entering a new vision in the composition of its youth team, it is betting on putting young people at the center of its actions. Therefore, the Center appeals to young people, with experience in community life or seeking to join it, to join or form a regional, national, local or university team through the CASEC Youth Representation Program.
