      La poésie, en ces temps où tout est marché et marchandise, reste l’une des grandes valeurs refuge de la spiritualité humaine, à savoir de la grande aventure de la parole née de la nécessité de nommer les choses, non seulement pour les connaître, mais également pour les faire accéder au stade de la représentation.

      Fondé en 1945 aux Etats-Unis, CARE a aidé des millions de personnes après la guerre en Europe avec les fameux colis CARE. Pâté, café, lait... Les colis étaient des ambassadeurs de la réconciliation et de l'aide directe d'homme à homme. Cette tradition perdure encore aujourd'hui. CARE est aujourd'hui présent dans 90 pays et s'engage pour combattre la pauvreté et faire en sorte que les personnes touchées par des catastrophes puissent survivre. Le plus important pour nous est l'égalité des sexes et la promotion des femmes et des filles notamment dans les régions où elles sont systématiquement désavantagées. La pauvreté est injuste. Nous ne pouvons accepter le fait que plus d'1,2 milliards de personnes dans le monde vivent dans une pauvreté extrême. C'est pourquoi le colis CARE représente aujourd'hui une aide efficiente, innovative et partenariale qui agit de façon durable. L'objectif de CARE: Offrir une aide humanitaire au delà des anciens fronts, de l’homme pour l’homme, comme marque de paix et de compréhension entre les peuples. Show less
