❤️ Faced with an emergency, support Les Orchidées Rouges: Marie-Claire Koulibaly supports women victims of sexual violence

An NGO created by KEDGE graduate Marie-Claire Koulibaly to change the destiny of thousands of women

🌟 Founder of Orchidées Rouges, serving women worldwide

In 2017, Marie-Claire Koulibaly, a graduate of KEDGE Business School's grande école program, made a radical choice: to leave the world of telecoms and finance to found Les Orchidées Rouges, an international NGO based in France and Côte d'Ivoire, now recognized as a public interest organization.

Its aim: to eradicate female genital mutilation, forced marriage and all forms of sexist and sexual violence, by raising awareness and providing comprehensive support for survivors: psychological, medical, social, legal and economic.

"The important thing is not what is made of us, but what we make of what has been made of us. - Jean Paul Sartre

🌍 An international commitment, a concrete impact

Since its creation, Les Orchidées Rouges has :

  • supported over 1,200 women and girls in its medical-psychosocial institutes in France,

  • trained over 5,000 professionals,

  • raised awareness among 20,000 people in the field and 40 million through the media.

The results are significant:
✔ 85% of beneficiaries say they feel better psychologically after 3 months of care
✔ 88% are no longer isolated
✔ 95% feel supported
✔ And 5% were able to benefit from reconstructive surgery, thanks to the NGO's unique approach.

Since July 2021, the NGO has enjoyed special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council, a major recognition of its global impact.
