Since the start of the year, we have been filming one video per month about an initiative led by an Emmaus group.
The 1st International Container and Transport meeting took place at the Emmaus community of Angouleme*, France, from 11 - 13 December 2019. This meeting gathered around 60 participants from groups that are active in this programme, or who would like to get involved, from all the regions of the Movement.
On 23 January 2020, the Solidarity with Brazil coalition, of which Emmaus International is a member, launched its campaign “Brazil resists. Fighting is not a crime.” This is aimed at French and European citizens and political decision-makers. The coalition also took this opportunity to present its "Warning barometer on the human rights situation in Brazil".
The Emmaus Ethical Fund is supporting the microcredit programme run by Emmaus Pahou in Benin, Africa, making this group the first to receive a loan and access credit since this global mutual fund was developed.
