Supported Project

In 2023-2024, the French subsidiary of L'OCCITANE en Provence supports a project by the Salvation Army Foundation aimed at helping refugee women integrate professionally. This project offers training in eco-construction trades using environmentally friendly materials such as raw earth and ecological paints, with the goal of facilitating their reintegration and combating gender stereotypes in the construction sector. This year, the Salvation Army Foundation is also expanding its activities by training a group of women in hospitality and minor maintenance trades, while raising awareness about eco-construction.
