Located in the heart of Fort-de-France, Martinique, the ” Trois Lieu ” is a space dedicated to the socio-professional inclusion of young people and women. It is a place to work, meet and co-create. Managed by the association D’Antilles et D’Ailleurs, its aim is to create an open environment that links social inclusion professionals and offers a safe space for the beneficiary public.
It is also home to the local branch of Mouvement du Nid, a national association committed to combating the causes and consequences of the prostitution system. This physical proximity between D’Antilles et D’Ailleurs and Mouvement du Nid fosters invaluable synergies in supporting these vulnerable women.
The FLAM (Femmes Latinos Américaines en Mouvement) association, also based here, is dedicated to empowering migrant women from Central and South America. FLAM promotes community self-help and strives to change the way the Spanish-speaking community is viewed.
A space for coworking and sisterhood
Le Trois Lieu” is a hybrid space that brings together various actions, projects and initiatives around a common objective: to welcome, help and support young people and women in difficulty. Located on two levels at 122 rue Lamartine, Le Trois Lieu offers a secure environment for beneficiaries, while being easily accessible for those living in the Terres-Sainville priority district.
Its location enables this vulnerable group of people to get away from their everyday lives, while breaking down isolation and ghettoization. This third-location facility fosters encounters and collaboration between support workers and the people they accompany, who evolve together in the same space to co-create a more equitable world.
What’s more, thanks to the many transnational projects run by the associations, Le Trois Lieu is constantly forging links between Martinique and the rest of the world, particularly with Europe, the Caribbean, and Central and South America.
These cultural bridges broaden the horizons of beneficiaries, offering them new perspectives and reinforcing a sense of belonging to a supportive global community.
D’Altilles et D’Ailleurs
D’Antilles & D’Ailleurs is a feminist association committed to an inclusive world where everyone, regardless of origin, gender or background, can live with dignity and have access to the same opportunities.
The association raises awareness of persistent discrimination and promotes dialogue, education and community involvement to deconstruct stereotypes.
It works for social change guided by values of respect, equality and solidarity, with the conviction that inclusion is essential to building a fairer, more equitable society.
Mouvement du Nid Antenne de Martinique
Mouvement du Nid is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting prostitutes and fighting against the prostitution system and violence against women.
Present in Martinique since 2017, it has a team of volunteers and professionals who accompany these women, who are mostly migrants and vulnerable.
The association offers a space where these women can find listening, support and help with their administrative, legal and integration procedures, aiming to help them leave prostitution and gain access to fundamental rights such as employment, training and housing.
FLAM (Latin American Women on the Move)
The FLAM Association was created by Santa, a Dominican woman who arrived in Martinique in 1992, to support the integration of Latin American women on the island.
After overcoming the challenges of language and discrimination, Santa opened a hairdressing salon in Fort-de-France. Drawing on her experience, she founded FLAM to offer other migrant women support and
advice.
The association is also developing cultural activities in the Terres-Sainville neighborhood, with the aim of fostering the integration and development of the Latin American community in Martinique.
Community of women, youth and their allies
