A strategic partnership to respond to humanitarian crises

19/06/2024 Signature D'une Convention Entre Le Ministère De

Since 2017, we have intervened in 15 countries to respond to humanitarian emergencies by mobilizing our expertise and network on energy topics.

On Wednesday June 19, Philippe Lalliot, Director of the Crisis and Support Center at the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, and Hervé Gouyet, President of Electriciens sans frontières, renewed this strategic partnership, bringing together many players in the French electricity industry.

In the event of a humanitarian crisis, Electriciens sans frontières intervenes to restore access to energy. This emergency action is of prime importance, as it enables international solidarity players to act in optimal conditions to help the disaster-stricken population.

The renewal of the agreement signed at the Quai d’Orsay underlines the importance of mobilizing 14 industrial partners, whose financial, logistical, material and human resources will be mobilized by Electriciens sans frontières to carry out emergency operations in the best possible conditions. Their collaboration is a key factor in strengthening emergency response capabilities.

We would like to thank our committed partners for their trust and continued support:
