About Us

History

The history of Centre des Hommes was started in 2000 by a visionary man who gathered people together for a good cause in his hometown of Kpalimé.  Young people wanted to change about the circumstances of their life.  The visionary decided first to change himself by going abroad to learn new skills and knowledge.  He then returned to share what he had learned with his community, built around the young living sustainably. The Centre des Hommes was founded by him, and since 2007 it has been devoted to working on the ground for the local people and their needs. A training center is about to be built to showcase all kinds of sustainable life processes with practical demonstrations.
