n°1 Devlop RA



Edito
Impact Chronicles
Spring is always a special time at Louvain Coopération. It is a time to take stock of all the actions carried out during the previous year and to present our Activity Report. This raises some difficult choices: what to include? What to choose from the multitude of things we have accomplished? Which results to highlight? How can we best illustrate our impact and the changes it brings about in the populations and communities with which we work?
This year, we wanted to embrace change and present our ‘AR’ in a completely different way. It comes in the form of a Devlop'RA. This special edition features our annual results, presented according to the systemic approach and specific methodology of Louvain Coopération, which we have defined in order to better respond to today's global, complex and interconnected challenges. Our goal is to act on four systems – agriculture and food, health, entrepreneurship and education – and their interactions in order to strengthen the resilience of change agents and develop cross-cutting, coherent and sustainable responses. We also wanted to take advantage of this Devlop'RA to continue talking to you about the heart of our work. So we are heading to Burundi, where environmental challenges are compounded by the need to produce enough food to meet the needs of a growing population.
A dual objective, therefore: to present our overall impact and offer more content.
As with any change, doubts arise. How will this new format be received? We sincerely hope that yours will be warm. In any case, we are always open to your feedback.
We hope you enjoy reading this issue and thank you from the bottom of our hearts, because the projects featured in this first Devlop'RA exist thanks to your support.
