5TH CALL FOR PROJECTS IN THE OCCITANIE REGION
In 2020, five associations in the Occitanie region were selected following a call for projects to receive one-off financial aid to support implementation of their health development initiatives for underprivileged population groups in the Global South.
The winners received their awards at a ceremony hosted at the Foundation headquarters, which was followed by a special broadcast by the radio stations RCF Occitanie and Radio Présence, both of which are available for replay.
