During the 6th International Congress in Fondacio, Togo, a group of delegates immersed themselves, on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, in the Dalavé farm-school project. Founded by Professor Agbati, engineer and teacher-researcher, the Feab is a place of experimentation to improve the daily life of Togolese households with the means at hand, while respecting nature.
Ria Étienne, a Belgian who has been involved in Togo since 1999, testified to her journey as a missionary during the 6th International Congress of Fondacio, organized in early May 2023, in the center of Sichem, near Lomé. From her difficult childhood as a nurse in a Belgian hospital, then to her commitment as a "permanente" within Fondacio in Africa, this discreet and resilient septuagenarian gives us a humble and powerful testimony.
The 6th International Fondacio Congress ended on Friday, May 5, 2023, at the Sichem center, 20 km from Lomé, Togo. During one week, 120 delegates and guests, coming from 20 countries around the world, elected a new presidency, worked on the renewal of the association, voted on two main orientations for the next five years (youth and integral ecology) and immersed themselves in solidarity projects in Togo… A joy to be together, to come together, with and for the world! Day-by-day account.

This team will be part of the Council of Fondacio.
