Communities Resilient
For a just and inclusive ecological transition
Resilient Communities – Phase II (CoRe II) is a program that brings together communities, organizations and partners committed to a just and inclusive ecological transition.
Faced with climate, social and democratic crises, CoRe II supports initiatives that strengthen the power of communities to act, promote cooperation and contribute to building sustainable and equitable responses in territories.
Launched in 2025 for the period 2025-2029, the program brings together 24 operational partners and 8 associate partners and is deployed in 16 countries, including France.

Une communauté engagée pour agir et apprendre ensemble
À travers une communauté de pratiques et de plaidoyer, CoRe II relie les initiatives de terrain à des dynamiques collectives d’apprentissage et d’influence.
Le programme favorise la coopération entre acteurs locaux, nationaux et internationaux afin de renforcer la voix des communautés dans l’espace public et auprès des décideurs.
Qu’est-ce qu’une communauté résiliente ?
Une communauté résiliente est une communauté qui renforce sa capacité à comprendre les transformations de son territoire, faire face aux crises et construire collectivement des solutions durables et équitables.
Dans le cadre de CoRe II, les communautés sont au cœur des solutions. Le programme cherche notamment à renforcer le pouvoir d’agir des femmes et des hommes les plus vulnérables, afin qu’ils puissent participer aux décisions, agir collectivement et défendre leurs droits.
CoRe II soutient les initiatives de plus de 105 000 femmes et hommes pour un budget global de plus de 10 millions sur 4 ans.
Le programme contribue notamment à :
-
développer des systèmes alimentaires plus résilients et durables
-
protéger les terres et les biens communs
-
faire reconnaître les droits fonciers et territoriaux
-
valoriser les savoirs autochtones et traditionnels.
​​
Cette approche associe les enjeux sociaux, environnementaux, territoriaux et de droits humains.

​Une transition écologique juste et solidaireCoRe
II s'appuie sur une vision fondée sur les droits et le respect du vivant. La vision de la transition écologique juste du collectif
A just and inclusive ecological transition
CoRe II is based on a vision grounded in rights and respect for all living things. This is the collective's vision of a just ecological transition.
The program is based on three principles:
-
Living in connection with others and with nature
-
To live with dignity from the land and one's work
-
Living in harmony with one's territory
These principles translate into actions around agroecology, climate and environmental justice, territorial governance, gender equality and human rights.
CoRe II values local and traditional knowledge and encourages dialogue between communities, associative actors, political decision-makers and academic circles.
Secours Catholique and other French actors can draw inspiration from the initiatives carried out within the framework of CoRe II and contribute to a dynamic that links local issues to global issues.
