Forty years of a journey marked by commitment and concrete action, deeply held convictions, and active solidarity with disadvantaged communities. For many of us, this journey is not just that of an NGO: it is a way of life, a meaningful choice. <\/em><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading defined_color=&#8221;yellow&#8221; text=&#8221;Ever since our first assignments, a simple idea has guided us&#8230;&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]&#8230; access to electricity changes everything.<\/p>\n<p>It provides lighting for a classroom, ensures the safety of a health center, facilitates access to water, and helps create a source of income. <strong>Access to energy empowers those who were previously deprived of it.<\/strong> Over the years, we have seen firsthand what \u201caccess to energy\u201d really means: it is never a luxury; it is a turning point.<\/p>\n<p>Our anniversary cannot be merely a celebration of our history: it is also an opportunity<strong>to look toward the future<\/strong>. Today, the world seems to be growing darker, and crises are multiplying: climate disasters, protracted conflicts, mass population displacements, food insecurity&#8230; Everywhere, needs are growing\u2014becoming more urgent and more complex\u2014yet the means to address them are under threat in many places, notably due to <strong>the alarming decline in official development assistance<\/strong>. This unacceptable paradox, which we experience firsthand, undermines years of progress and hits hundreds of millions of disadvantaged women, men, and children the hardest.<\/p>\n<p>In the face of this, resignation is not an option when we see so many women and men on the ground taking action, innovating, and holding onto hope. Our volunteers, our local partners, and our supporters refuse to give up. <strong>Day after day, they prove that solidarity is not an abstract idea but a force in action.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading defined_color=&#8221;yellow&#8221; text=&#8221;These 40 years fill us with as much pride as they do a sense of responsibility&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Building on our track record, our technical expertise, and our capacity for action and adaptation, we will continue to uphold a fundamental principle: <strong>to help make international solidarity a political priority by embodying the fundamental right of access to clean energy for all<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Now more than ever, we need a <strong>collective, clear-eyed, and determined commitment<\/strong>, because our struggle is about dignity, justice, and the role we choose to give to solidarity in a world in crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Now in its 40th year, Electricians Without Borders continues to move forward, driven by those who have always refused to accept that darkness is inevitable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em><strong>Herv\u00e9 Gouyet, Vice President of Electriciens sans fronti\u00e8res<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 40px;\"><a style=\"background-color: #fabc41; color: #ffffff; text-decoration: none; padding: 12px 25px; border-radius: 4px; font-weight: bold;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.calameo.com\/read\/00742039214f47078702b?page=1\">Read the 2025 Annual Report<\/a><\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2025 Annual Report from Electriciens sans fronti\u00e8res is now available!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":43236,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[490,491,687],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43238","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-press-releases","category-a-la-une-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43238","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\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43238"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43238\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":43241,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43238\/revisions\/43241"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/43236"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.electriciens-sans-frontieres.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
