Secours Catholique S. Le Clezio / S.C.

Founded in 1946, Secours Catholique/ Caritas France is a service of the , a member of Caritas Internationalis Confederation and an approved public utility associa- tion. A non profit organisation as defined by the Law of July 1, 1901, it manages an annual budget of 130M Euros and is supported by a network of some 65,000 volunteers for “brin- ging help either direct or indirect, moral or material aid wherever there is a need for it, with the exception of any distinctive national or confessional religious identity, irrespective of the philosophical or religious opinions of the beneficiaries.” (Extract of the statutes, art. 1)

Our mission ween everyone, whether in France or throughout The mission of Secours Catholique is to spread the world. Christian Charity by creating a solid unity bet- Secours Catholique considers that men, women and children living in situations of poverty play a major part in their own development. It makes a commitment to fight side by side with them against the causes of poverty and exclu- sion, and promote the development of the human person in all its aspects. It seeks an active partnership with organisations that share its objectives in order to promote social justice in local, national and international policies. In accordance with Christianity, it invites each per- son to go and meet the poorest people, listen to them, support them and associate with them so that together we can build a fairer and more fra- ternal society.

Our values Faithful to the spirit of our origins, Secours Catho- lique roots its action in Christian values and the key principles defined by the social teachings of the Church: Respect and dignity of the human per- son, justice, solidarity, fraternity, reconciliation, peace, the preferential option for the poor, the integral development of the human person, sub- E.

2006-2011: the 6 directions of Secours Catholique In 2006, Secours Catholique defined the directions it would be taking on a national basis for the six coming years:

Direction 1: Strengthen our support with the most marginalised or isolated people and areas by partnership and inclusion in the network. Direction 2: Join forces with the people we have met via fraternal support and collective action. Direction 3: Act on the causes of poverty by making a commitment to peo- ple who endure it. Direction 4: Strengthen the international commitment of all the main players of the network, notably by developing concrete collaboration between the delegations and Caritas. Direction 5: Encourage and support the united commitment of everyone by adapting our actions, our training and our communication. Direction 6: Dare to experience fraternity with poor people in Church and share together the search for a meaning. Anglais-V7.qxd:Mise en page 1 10/06/08 17:56 Page 6

Institutional action: acting on the causes of poverty An alarm-raising and proposal force, Secours Catholique is committed to promoting social justice and figh- ting against exclusion. Boosted by credibility acknowledged by the institutions, it carries out a determined action to get the laws changed and convince the authorities to have strong and efficient policies to fight against poverty. Based on actual figures, the institutional action plays the role of social watchdog, characte- rised by the annual publication of a statistical report on the condition of the poor in France. Regularly consulted as part of national discussions, Secours Catholique places its expertise at the service of common good. An associative main player with a tendency towards collective action, it participates in various action groups and platforms (Collectif Alerte, platform for the right to opposable housing, etc.)

Secours Catholique is a member of: • UNIOPPS (Union Nationale inter-fédérale des œuvres et organismes privés sanitaires et sociaux - National inter-federal union of private social and welfare charities and organisations) • CNLE (Conseil national de lutte contre la pauvreté et l’exclusion sociale - National council for the fight against poverty and social exclusion) • CNCDH (Commission nationale consultative des droits de l’homme - National human rights consul- tative commission) • EAPN (European Anti-Poverty Network)

Acting throughout the world / S.C. Delapierre P.

Because charity has no frontiers, Secours Catholique / Caritas France has, from its very outset, carried out major actions on an international basis. As a member of Caritas Internationalis, every year at the request of local Caritas groups, it supports more than 500 international aid operations for underprivileged countries and popula- tions. The emergency or development actions deployed in more than 80 countries are conducted by the headquarters’ International Action Department and by the delega- tions. To contribute to the financing of its projects Secours Catholique/Caritas France benefits from financial aid from the European Union within the framework of a partner- ship with Echo (European Community Humanitarian aid Office).

International Emergencies Secours Catholique/Caritas France supports emergency relief programmes associated with natural disasters, situations of conflict and displa- cement of populations. In liaison with local partners it supplies in situ, human means (trai- ned volunteers) and materials (food, medicine, etc). The emergency relief programmes are elabo- rated with a view to sustainable development (e.g. Tsunami in South-East Asia, Kosovo).

International advocacy: fostering globalisation Because the answer to many problems can only be global Secours Catholique/Caritas France actively takes part in action groups and international networks for pressing on political, economical and financial decision-makers, and promoting a fair and humane vision of development.

International advocacy means having an influence on the challenges associated with globalisation. This commitment becomes a reality by taking a stand (fair trade, sustainable development, etc.), special inter- ventions (the conflicts in , promoting peace in the Middle East, etc.) themed campaigns (transparency of financial revenue, access to natural resources, etc.). Advocacy actions are elaborated from analysing concrete situations. They aim not only at alerting politicians and international authorities, but also to raise awareness and mobilise public opinion via operations involving collec- ting signatures and sending cards. By this process Secours Catholique/Caritas France and its international part- ners seek to strengthen the positions of civil society, for contributing to E.

Publications: the right information in the right time

Informing society about poverty and its causes has constituted an authentic mission for Secours Catholique since it started out. This is the role of the various publications pro- posed by the association.

Messages Every month the magazine Messages reports about extreme hardship, exclusions and conflicts, both in France and around the world. It gives a say to people in difficulty, provides an analysis of the causes of situations of exclusion, proposes several leads for discussion and solutions for fighting durably against poverty, talks about actions carried out in the field. With a print run of 600,000 copies it repre- sents a privileged link between Secours Catholique, its volunteers and its donors.

Web site The web site presents local, national and international information about Secours Catholique. Upda- ted weekly, it proposes articles, special news articles, slide shows and interviews, etc. In addition, it contains all the practical information on the activities of the association and enables accessing the site of each delegation.

Thematic publications They highlight specific subjects (Gypsies, the fight against illiteracy and so on) or support the interna- tional petitioning actions. The annual report of Secours Catholique on the state of poverty, carried out from reception statistics, constitutes a long awaited appointment for the press and the institutions.

Historical points of reference D.R. 1946-1955 The calling. Secours Catholique was founded in 1946 on the calling of the Assembly of Cardi- nals and Archbishops of France. On 8 September 1946, Jean Rodhain, former chaplain of prisoners of war, announced the birth of Secours Catholique in Lourdes, on the occasion of the prisoners’ return pilgrimage. The first years were marked by

campaigns which aimed at exploring every form of D.R. poverty (the sick, the elderly, unhappy childhood, course of the following decades. In 1958 the first housing and so on).
