Fundación Polaris World

fundacion

Polaris World has created this Polaris World Foundation to promote solidarity and to develop projects leading to social, economical and cultural improvement.

Since its creation, the main aim of Polaris World Foundation has been to finance, promote and develop programmes for the improvement of economic, social and cultural conditions of the most disadvantaged people. This non-profit organization, presented to the media in July 2004, is involved in projects located in several sub-Saharan African countries.

At present, Africa is the destination of the Polaris World Foundation¿s main efforts. Our institution cooperates with about twenty projects developed in the following countries: Mali, Togo, Congo, Kenya, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ghana, Benin, Sierra Leone, Chad and Cameroon.

The Polaris World Foundation for Cooperation and Development Aid is also dedicated to other fields related to cooperation, such as basic infrastructure aimed to improving the quality of life, and vocational training for women and young farmers. We are also considering training development assistants and establishing a program for optimizing the available resources, especially in domains such as education, culture, sports, health, environment and attention to socially excluded groups.

The most important issue in cooperation for development is working from the very core of the people receiving the aid. They have the most important role, as they have to produce and express their own needs for their own development. The Polaris World Foundation gives shape to these projects, proposed by the people who live in the countries themselves.
