Noticing the hard reality of the people, she laid the foundation of the foundation PROSMI.
The Foundation for Maternal and Child Social Promotion (PROSMI) was created in February 2011 in the first place, coming from an appalling fact: Guinea is the second country with the highest rate of women dying in childbirth. Having lost her older sister under the same conditions almost 30 years ago, this fight for the reduction of maternal and infant mortality is very important to her. However, even more social and medical injustice remains to be fought, so the foundation is diversifying to several areas to meet the needs, including: health, environment, women's empowerment, schooling girls and well others. Remaining convinced that it is possible to see a sovereign and independent Africa Djéné Conde engages in its own population.
