In 2025, The Link became real.
What started as an idea shaped by urgency and care grew step by step into a collective project, grounded in places and relationships.
We activated a helpline to support people on the move in France — a living tool sustained by volunteers who share information, guidance, and practical support every day.
We moved across different cities and contexts — Nice, Menton, Ventimiglia, Grenoble, Gap, Calais, Dunkirk — meeting people, associations, collectives, and activists. These were not just field visits, but moments of listening, exchange, and trust-building.
We presented The Link in public spaces and festivals such as Bouffée d’Air, Fabrique d’Agirs aux Frontières, and the Transborder Summer Camp, creating connections and new alliances.
A key step this year was working alongside projects like the Channel Info Project, moving toward a shared goal: building reliable, shared resources at a national level.
At the same time, the platform kept evolving — more stable, more accessible, designed to support both those answering and those seeking help.
The Link exists because of a wide, living network.
2025 leaves us with one clear thing: this work only makes sense if done together.
In 2026, we will keep strengthening tools, relationships, and solidarity.
Thank you to everyone who is part of this journey.

2025, une année de The Link
En 2025, The Link est devenu réel.
Ce qui était au départ une idée née de l’urgence et du soin s’est transformé, pas à pas, en un projet collectif, ancré dans les territoires et les relations.
Nous avons activé une ligne téléphonique pour soutenir les personnes en mouvement en France — un outil vivant, porté par des bénévoles qui partagent chaque jour informations, orientation et soutien concret.
Nous avons traversé différents lieux — Nice, Menton, Ventimiglia, Grenoble, Gap, Calais, Dunkirk — en rencontrant personnes, associations, collectifs et activistes. Pas seulement des déplacements sur le terrain, mais des moments d’écoute, d’échange et de construction de confiance.
Nous avons présenté The Link dans des espaces publics et des festivals comme Bouffée d’Air, Fabrique d’Agirs aux Frontières
