A WORD FROM OUR FOUNDER
Being a refugee and immigrant at a very young age, I understood the chance of having a second chance in life thanks to the courage and sacrifice of my parents. So, giving to the next has always been part of my life.
There are many causes that are important to me and so in 2014, I founded UniAction. The mission is to help the poorest, but the projects have been diverse and continue to evolve according to societal challenges. Today, the objective has been refined because UniAction is keen to help support newcomers in their transition and integration into society. In addition, through its subsidiary UniAction Films, certain societal issues are put forward.
I believe that together we can make a positive difference in people’s lives and in society!

MAY 16TH: INTERNATIONAL DAY OF LIVING TOGETHER IN PEACE
Living together in peace means accepting differences, listening, showing esteem, respect and gratitude towards others and living in a spirit of peace and harmony. In 2017, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed May 16th as the International Day of Living Together in Peace. This day is a means of regularly mobilizing the efforts of the international community in favour of peace, tolerance, inclusion, understanding and solidarity, and an opportunity for all to express the deep desire to live and act together, united in difference and diversity, with a view to building a viable world based on peace, solidarity and harmony.
UniAction wishes through its mission to be part of the change towards a society and a world united in difference and diversity, which helps each other to build a united and harmonious world.
This year, the International Day of Living Together in Peace takes place in a particular context marked by the war in Ukraine and elsewhere in the world.
