- The NGO Iles de Paix is engaged in providing improved and sustainable living conditions to people across all continents. Mithra entered into a 3 year partnership for the construction of a new secondary school in Louargou, Burkina Faso.
- To address the critical need for secondary education and especially young female population, local community were consulted and brought on board this educational process to have the school initiative perceived as a true asset by the community.
- Situated in Louargou, the premises were inaugurated in October 2014. While addressing close to 12% of the secondary schooling infrastructure needs in the area, this new school reduced the walking distance to 2/3 km instead of 10 km for 240 students.
