Our spirit
In French-speaking Africa, almost all countries have adopted the French associative model. Thus, associations therefore come under the 1901 law. However, this legal form has been transposed as is with its strengths and weaknesses in a country, without taking into account local issues.In certain countries, including Togo, the status of association is very little recognized. As a result, they have little financial and moral support from the State. Consequently, those responsible for these structures encounter real difficulties in managing them and keeping them going. There is a real demand from them and a need to act with them.
Univers Togolais is an association based in France precisely in Nantes. In addition to the actions carried out in France, it will act in Togo in West Africa.
