Even before the disaster, residents were struggling to cope with the vulnerability of their fragile homes, often built from makeshift materials. The cyclone amplified this fragility, destroying many of these already unstable homes.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why our teams provide extra support in these areas.<\/p>\n<p>One of the key aspects of our intervention is the distribution of solar lamps. In coordination with our partners Solidarit\u00e9 Internationale and Ml\u00e9zi Mahores, we distributed solar lamps to families identified as priorities.<\/p>\n<p>This is just the beginning: a total of 2,000 solar lamps will be distributed over the coming weeks to improve living conditions for families.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator border_width=&#8221;2&#8243; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;39369&#8243; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;1px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;39357&#8243; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Mobilizing our partners: a strategic lever for emergency response&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]The strength of our action lies in the mobilization of our partners, who enable us to implement solutions tailored to needs. Thanks to their support, we can organize and adapt actions quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>This solidarity enables us to ensure the continuity of our actions by actively participating in consultation meetings and synergies with other sectors involved in the response to the cyclone.<\/p>\n<p>Electriciens sans fronti\u00e8res&#8217; actions in Mayotte illustrate the importance of cooperation and solidarity in crisis situations. Thanks to our partners, the mobilization of expert volunteers and the contributions of generous donors, we continue to provide a rapid and effective response to the energy needs of disaster-stricken populations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Our project partners :&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Consuel, Syndicat d\u00e9partemental des energies de Seine et Marne (SDESM &#8211; 77), Qualifelec, Syndicat d&#8217;energie des hautes pyr\u00e9n\u00e9es (SDE 65), SICAE DE L&#8217;OISE, UEM (EFLUID), SPIE Op\u00e9rations, VIALIS, FNCCR, le SYADEN (Syndicat Audois d&#8217;\u00e9nergie & du num\u00e9rique), Le SMEG (Syndicat Mixte d&#8217;electricit\u00e9 du gard), EDP Renewables France, H2air, Territoire d&#8217;Energie Somme, SIPPEREC, COMPAGNIE NATIONALE DU RH\u00d4NE (CNR), Territoire d&#8217;Energie Tarn (SDET 81), SYNDICAT INTERCOMMUNAL D&#8217;\u00c9NERGIES DU D\u00c9PARTEMENT DE L&#8217;AVEYRON (SIEDA &#8211; 12), SDEE de la Loz\u00e8re, SDEHG &#8211; Syndicat d\u00e9partemental d&#8217;\u00e9nergie de la Haute-Garonne, Ko\u00e9sio, Syndicat du Gers (SDEG 32), TE47, Sturno.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"comments-comment-item__main-content feed-shared-main-content--comment t-14 t-black t-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"><span dir=\"ltr\">We would also like to thank our long-standing partners <a class=\"xrRzshziQfYBvuVMpfGnTyyiKZZqmaRxghNaNJtQ \" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/legrand-france\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-test-app-aware-link=\"\">Legrand France<\/a> and <a class=\"xrRzshziQfYBvuVMpfGnTyyiKZZqmaRxghNaNJtQ \" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/rehlko\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-test-app-aware-link=\"\">Rehlko<\/a> for their support in our many initiatives.<\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Electriciens sans fronti\u00e8res is mobilizing its volunteer teams and partners to provide an emergency response to the energy needs of the affected populations and essential local structures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":39357,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[490,687,703],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-39352","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-a-la-une-en","category-on-the-ground"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39352","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39352"}],"version-history":[{"count":62,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39352\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":41081,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39352\/revisions\/41081"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39352"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39352"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39352"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
