AND THIS IS OUR TECHNICAL TEAM:

With the expansion of our projects in Spain and Benin, and especially since in 2020 we incorporated social intervention with groups at risk of exclusion in Valencia, the presence of a team of qualified professionals is necessary.

After 4 years working, we opened the Alicante branch in January 2022.

And, we look forward to the opening of the Seville branch in the near future.

Both in Spain and in Benin our teams are growing with our projects!
