Keli Simplice is a
self-taught Ivorian entrepreneur of 32 years of age. Uniquely through
his life experiences, he has succeeded in creating his business from
scratch. Little by little, he has, thanks to his perseverance,
founded a security company in his country. But his actions did not
stop there because, coming from a very poor background, he wanted to
help young people who have no access to education.
To do this he
educates youth to something that seems trivial to us but which is
very important, especially in developing countries facing
difficulties in medical treatment: hygiene. This seems trivial to us
but a person who has never received any education cannot know, for
example, that washing one's hands helps eliminate bacteria
responsible for diseases.
He therefore hopes
that the COP21 will launch sewer creation projects in the slums of
the big cities of Côte d'Ivoire, because there the waste is not
treated and garbage decomposition can be seen by everybody.
