JUBILEE YEAR OF ALBERT SCHWEITZER (2025)
JUBILEE YEAR OF ALBERT SCHWEITZER
On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Albert Schweitzer’s birth, the Gabonese Association of Friends of Albert Schweitzer is honored to celebrate an exceptional Jubilee Year in 2025.
This tribute will do justice to the humanistic, medical, and philosophical legacy of this illustrious physician, Nobel Peace Prize laureate, who dedicated his life to serving the people of Lambaréné and the world.
Welcome to the official website of the Gabonese Association of Friends of Albert Schweitzer.
Perpetuating the human values taught by Dr. Albert Schweitzer.
A young association, but one that has been shaped over many years by the thought and work of Dr. Albert Schweitzer, AGAAS takes on the major challenge of reconnecting the umbilical cord between the global Schweitzerian movement and the city of Lambaréné.
"Because I trust in the power of Truth and Spirit, I believe in the future of humanity."
- Albert Schweitzer
OUR VALUES
Belief
Inspired by his timeless commitment to compassion, service, and reverence for life, we strive to carry on his mission by providing healthcare, education, and sustainable development in the region.
AGAAS's work is based on a clear conviction: the Schweitzerian spirit is more relevant than ever in today's discussions on sustainable development, the survival of the planet, and the vision of universal fraternity.
AGAAS promotes the idea that every individual has a role to play in ensuring the prevalence of solidarity, which is essential for the socio-economic progress of humanity. It wishes to make its modest contribution to the great Schweitzerian family.
Conviction
Solidarity
The AGAAS hopes for the multiplication of acts of solidarity and charitable initiatives based on Schweitzer’s principle of Reverence for Life.
Building together means strengthening the ties of the past.
Through humanitarian, cultural, and educational initiatives, we work towards local development, support for vulnerable populations, and the transmission of values such as respect, solidarity, and service. Our mission is to build bridges between the past and the future by reviving the Schweitzerian spirit and making a tangible impact on the ground.
