Established in 1989, the Association François-Xavier Bagnoud (FXB) is an international development non-profit that works to create a world where everyone has a chance not only to survive, but also to thrive. FXB has over 30 years of experience in breaking the cycle of poverty, with two primary goals: the protection of children and the economic and social empowerment of women and families. To bridge the gap between academia, civil society, governmental partners and policy makers, FXB unites practice, policy and advocacy by adopting field-driven insights and tested policy prescriptions that give a voice to forgotten people in forgotten places.
