Questions générales

To do what ?

In France, emergency accommodation is saturated, it is estimated that 72,000 places are missing, however, some centers are not always fully occupied when many women could benefit from them ? We want to facilitate access and connection between hosts and beneficiaries.

Why specifically for women ?

It has now been proven that a woman living on the street presents a greater risk of assault than a man, in particular the risk of sexual assault.

A shelter for them is to offer them protection against these attacks.

Why in Bordeaux ?

Les Orchidées Rouges have been present in the Girondin area since 2017, we support women and girls who are survivors of female genital mutilation, and/or forced or early marriage.

We have noted the precarious situation in which some of our beneficiaries are.

Faced with the observation that the possibilities of emergency accommodation are insufficient, but also that many solidarity hosts are too often unknown to people in need, we have decided to act !
