Our values & commitments
The promoters and administrators of the New Horizons Foundation are committed to perpetuating the founder’s values of humanity, benevolence and support for the most vulnerable – children with disabilities. Sometimes left to fend for themselves, they don’t find their place in society, which doesn’t necessarily have the specialized infrastructures to accommodate them.
The Foundation is keen to make its contribution to major social issues. That’s why it promotes a project that makes sense, serving children and young people living with a disability and their families.
The New Horizons Foundation is committed to an inclusive society, and to sustainable medical, social, educational and professional support. A close and caring relationship, supporting all aspiring young people with disabilities or learning difficulties, is our raison d’être.
Together, we are committed to guiding, supporting and accompanying young people with disabilities and their families, to promote positive social change in Gabon, which leaves no one behind.
Our partners
To carry out its project, the New Horizons Foundation works in collaboration with national and international institutional partners.
Its natural partners are the full members of the Board of Directors, who drive and direct public policy in areas of direct interest to the Foundation’s project: the Ministries of the Interior, National Education, Vocational Training, Social Affairs and Health, as well as the Libreville municipality.
The New Horizons Foundation is also supported in its project by UNICEF and other international organizations.
In addition, the New Horizons Foundation works closely with :
