About us
La Chaîne de l’Espoir (CDE) is a French non-profit organization founded in 1994. Its mission is to ensure that every woman and child has access to the medical care they need, regardless of where they are born. Specialized in pediatric and cardiac surgery, CDE delivers surgical care to those who cannot access it locally, strengthens hospitals and trains medical teams in partner countries, and supports education and primary healthcare for women and children, in close partnership with local medical networks.
PROGRAM IN SYRIA
La Chaîne de l'Espoir has been present in the region since 2012, through operations in Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq. Following the February 2023 earthquake, CDE extended its support directly inside Syria through assistance to a hospital in Aleppo. In January 2025, CDE conducted two technical assessments in Syria, which informed the design of its current intervention in the country.
In 2026, CDE will start implementing its first in-country intervention, in the Damascus and Rural Damascus governorates. The project combines primary and secondary healthcare, specialized pediatric surgical care, integrated nutrition activities, and emergency preparedness.
