Étant éducatrice auprès des mineurs étrangers non accompagnés, j’ai vu de nombreuses personnes mineures ou adultes, dans l’obligation de quitter le centre pour s’envoler vers de nouveaux horizons avec ou sans statut de protection. À plusieurs reprises, je me suis demandée si nous leur avions apporté le bagage nécessaire pour affronter la vie de tous les jours avec ses joies et ses embûches. Parmi toutes les questions que je me posais quotidiennement, j’en ai retenu principalement une : Comment préparer au mieux une personne ? à la sortie d’un centre d’accueil De là a débuté mon projet d’un guide pour jeunes et s’en est suivi toute une série de réflexions et de recherches articulées autour de divers sujets.

  • Lafargeholcim CDP Climate Change 2020
    LafargeHolcim Ltd - Climate Change 2020 C0. Introduction C0.1 (C0.1) Give a general description and introduction to your organization. Company Profile LafargeHolcim is the global leader in building materials and solutions. It is active in four business segments: Cement, Aggregates, Ready-Mix Concrete, and Solutions and Products. It was founded in mid-2015 following the merger of Lafarge S.A and Holcim Ltd. The Group has a presence in around 80 countries and has over 70 000 employees. In 2019 it recorded CHF 26.7 bn in net sales and has 286 mt of annual cement production capacity worldwide. The Group has over 2,300 plants (including over 1,400 in ready mix concrete, 649 in aggregates and 264 in cement and grinding plants). The Group has solutions and services in cement, concrete, and aggregates for the following businesses: buildings, infrastructure, distribution, oil and gas, affordable housing, and construction systems. Cement is manufactured through a large-scale, capital-and-energy-intensive process. At the core of the production process is a rotary kiln, in which limestone and clay are heated to approximately 1,450 degrees Celsius. The semi-finished product, clinker, is created by sintering. In the cement mill, gypsum is added to the clinker and the mixture is ground to a fine powder – traditional Portland cement. Other high-grade materials such as granulated blast furnace slag, fly ash, pozzolan, and limestone can be added in order to modify the properties of the cement for special uses or specific application. Aggregates include crushed stone, gravel, and sand. They can also be recycled from concrete wastes.

  • Mergers: Commission Approves Acquisition of Certain Lafarge And
    European Commission - Press release Mergers: Commission approves acquisition of certain Lafarge and Holcim assets by CRH Brussels, 24 April 2015 The European Commission has cleared under the EU Merger Regulation the proposed acquisition of several assets of Holcim of Switzerland and of Lafarge of France by Irish building materials manufacturer CRH. The Commission concluded that the transaction would raise no competition concerns, in particular because the merged entity will continue to face sufficiently strong competition after the merger and customers will have alternative suppliers in all markets concerned. The proposed transaction concerns assets worth several billion euros which Holcim and Lafarge committed to divest to gain the Commission clearance of their merger in December 2014. CRH's activities overlap with the divested businesses in a number of areas, such as cement, aggregates, ready-mix concrete and asphalt. As most of these materials are sold within a short distance from the site where they are manufactured, the Commission focussed its assessment on the impact of the merger on customers located near the production facilities of CRH and of the divested assets. The Commission's investigation focused on the effects of the merger on competition for grey cement in three areas, namely (i) the cross border region between Poland and Slovakia, (ii) the cross border region between France and Belgium, and (iii) the United Kingdom. The Commission also looked at the competitive landscape for ready-mix concrete, cementitious materials, aggregates and asphalt in several regions of the European Economic Area (EEA). In the United Kingdom, the Commission assessed in particular overlaps in South Wales and Scotland and concluded that the merged entity will continue to face competition from major integrated players, such as Hanson (HeidelbergCement), Cemex, Hope, and LafargeHolcim, as well as from importers.
