Last Friday, September 22, the Collectivity of Saint-Martin brought together the local associations at the CCISM around the annual seminar dedicated to the associative sector.
Martine Beldor, in charge of Community Life under the aegis of the human development and citizenship delegation chaired by the 3rd vice-president Dominique Démocrite Louisy, opened the seminar by recalling the measures deployed by the COM as well as the important means to unite associations and provide them with all the useful information in order to realize their projects and develop their structure. The Associations Seminar aimed to inform the public, volunteers and employees of all the assistance available to them, assistance presented and detailed during the evening through three components: financial support, human support and technical support support. training. Fabien Sésé, secretary general of the prefecture, was also present as part of the State-COM partnership on the financing of annual aid to local associations through the European Social Fund (ESF) for a total amount of 4 million euros annuals.
Over the last five years, 500 associations have submitted grant requests. Since January 1, 2023, 41 associations have been created, which represents one association each week. This significant figure proves once again to what extent the local associative fabric is active and constantly developing. After the success of the presentation of calls for projects to associations on March 14, this seminar did not deserve to be successful in terms of success, the Opal room of the CCISM was full of people.
