General Information
Jerusalem & Religions est un site indépendant d'informations bilingue (français-anglais) sur les trois religions monothéistes en Terre Sainte lancé à l'occasion de la visite du pape Benoît XVI en Terre Sainte en mai 2009. Il a été créé par deux journalistes qui travaillent avec une équipe de pigistes. Jusqu'à présent le site n'a aucun budget de fonctionnement. Les ressources prévues : publicité, produits dérivés (boutique d'objets religieux, conférences, pèlerinage dans les pas des trois religions, ...) et dons. Nous avons créé une société basée en Israël. Par ailleurs, une association "Les Amis de Jérusalem & Religions" a été créée en France pour faire connaître le site et soutenir son activité.
Mission and Objectives

Notre objectif est de promouvoir la connaissance de l'Autre dans sa dimension religieuse pour asseoir le dialogue interreligieux et plus largement le dialogue interculturel sur des bases concrètes. Notre objectif est de parler des trois religions monothéïstes dans leur réalité quotidienne, leur diversité et leur complexité afin de lutter contre l’ignorance et l’obscurantisme, source de racisme, d’antisémitisme, d’islamophobie ou de christianophobie.
Où mieux le faire qu’en Terre Sainte, racine spirituelle des trois monothéismes ? Nous pensons que la richesse du réel est la meilleure arme contre les simplifications, les préjugés et la haine.
Il ne s’agit pas de délivrer un message aux seuls croyants mais à tous ceux qui sont curieux des questions religieuses pour mieux appréhender les tensions nouvelles du monde.

Main Projects / Activities

Ce projet qui maturait depuis quelques a été lancé lors de la visite du pape Benoît XVI en Terre Sainte en mai 2009. Ce pèlerinage exceptionnelle nous a semblé un évènement incontournable compte tenu de l'objectif de notre site. Nous avons donc été contraints de créer le site dans l'urgence et sans avoir préalablement réuni des fonds nécessaires au succès durable d'une telle entreprise. Nous souhaitons développer ce site en mettant en ligne de nouveaux articles à un rythme quotidien, en offrant d'autres langues de lecture (espagnol, arabe, russe, ...) aux côtés des versions française et anglaise existante, en développant des activités complèmentaires (pèlerinage ou circuit touristique sur mesure dans les pas des trois religions, ateliers et conférences, rencontres avec des acteurs religieux de la région, ...), etc. Pour cela nous avons besoin d'argent autrement dit soit de mécènes, soit d'investisseurs qui croient au projet.

General Information
lyseconcept est une petite entreprise individuelle créée à l'occasion de la découverte de l'assainissement biologique des eaux usées domestiques. De cette découverte une invention est née: le procédé "Fosse biologique"lyseconcept qui traite épure et recycle les eaux usées pour l'arrosage immédiat du jardin potager. une extension du procédé a révélé une autre découverte: le CEBRE Centre d'épuration Biologique et de recyclage écologique des eaux usées. le CEBRE supprime la station d'épuration et le réseau de collecte de l'assainissement collectif. la finalité du procédé "Fosse Biologique"lyseconcept est aujourd'hui de favoriser le développement de la biodiversité de surface. le dernier projet de lyseconcept est de participer à l'arrosage d'une agricole au Sénégal avec les eaux usées du village proche
Mission and Objectives

la problématique de l'eau potable est intimement liée à la problématique du traitement des eaux usées sa principale source de pollution. la seule alternative c'est l'assainissement biologique qui a une action pédagogique pour le respect de l'usage de l'eau pour les besoins ménager domestiques en supprimant l'utilisation de produits toxiques contenant des micros polluant chimiques.

Main Projects / Activities

implanter le maximum de site pilote de traitement biologique des eaux usées domestiques en milieu rural en Europe mais aussi sur toute l'Afrique ou l'eau et la nourriture sont vitales

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

j'aimerais implanter le procédé pour aider des populations à risque comme par exemple les Rooms. on leur reproche en se sédentarisant de créer des risques sanitaires à cause justement de leurs eaux usées et toilettes. le procédé supprimerait ce risque et en même temps leur assurerait de la nourriture et une certaine hygiène.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

un petit plombier biologique persuadé d'avoir un procédé qui peut se mettre en place partout sur terre en n'importe quelle condition a peu de moyen de réussir. En adhérant à un réseau le procédé vient compléter d'autres projets.

ARCPA also utilizes the voluntary efforts of experts in child and youth development, creative acts therapy, integral learning, multi-media, movie production, and art practitioners from around the world.
