Association Ngehus was established in 2015 with a mission to apply the knowledge and practices of social psychology and human sciences to projects that prioritize human well-being, social cohesion, and sustainable development. Based in Lyon, France, our association has grown into a dedicated hub for expertise, guidance, and collaboration aimed at creating meaningful change in organizations, communities, and territories.
Our founding principle is simple yet powerful: human-centered approaches can transform the way people, groups, and organizations interact, leading to more effective, inclusive, and lasting solutions. At Ngehus, we believe that true progress is achieved not only through strategic planning and technical solutions but through understanding the dynamics of human behavior, relationships, and social environments. By integrating rigorous scientific knowledge with practical experience, we help organizations and communities navigate complex challenges while fostering solidarity and resilience.
Our team is composed of experts in social psychology, human sciences, and organizational development. Each member brings a unique combination of academic knowledge, field experience, and applied skills. This multidisciplinary expertise allows us to address complex issues from multiple perspectives, combining theory with practice to deliver solutions that are both innovative and effective. From designing training programs to providing personalized guidance and strategic consulting, our professionals are committed to supporting individuals and organizations in achieving their objectives while prioritizing human dignity and social responsibility.
At Association Ngehus, our work revolves around three key areas: training, support, and consulting.
- Training: We design and deliver programs that enhance the understanding of human behavior, group dynamics, and social interaction. Our courses target individuals, teams, and organizations, equipping them with the skills to navigate complex social environments, improve collaboration, resolve conflicts, and strengthen leadership. Education is at the heart of sustainable change, and our training programs are tailored to ensure practical application and long-term benefits.
- Support: Beyond training, we provide guidance and accompaniment to organizations and projects throughout their development and implementation phases. This may include workshops, strategic reflection sessions, needs assessments, and hands-on support to help teams apply insights effectively. Our approach emphasizes collaboration, ensuring that stakeholders are actively engaged in shaping solutions that meet their needs and align with their values.
- Consulting: We offer expert advice to organizations seeking to optimize their human and social impact. By analyzing organizational structures, social interactions, and community dynamics, we help leaders make informed decisions, design effective strategies, and implement interventions that promote cohesion, efficiency, and positive social outcomes. Our consulting services are grounded in evidence and adapted to the specific context of each client, ensuring relevance and impact.
Since its founding, Association Ngehus has engaged with a variety of partners, including local authorities, educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, and community groups. These collaborations have allowed us to implement projects that address social challenges, enhance organizational capacity, and strengthen community bonds. Each project reflects our commitment to practical application of human-centered principles, combining scientific insight with real-world problem solving.
Central to our philosophy is a commitment to social solidarity. We believe that the knowledge we possess should serve the greater good, and that all projects we support should contribute to creating inclusive, equitable, and resilient communities. Whether working with public institutions, private organizations, or grassroots initiatives, we strive to promote approaches that prioritize empathy, collaboration, and shared responsibility.
Our work is guided by a set of core values that define who we are and how we operate:
- Human-Centered Approach: We prioritize understanding and addressing the needs, experiences, and perspectives of individuals.
- Collaboration: We believe sustainable change emerges from dialogue, cooperation, and collective action.
- Integrity: We operate with transparency, honesty, and ethical rigor in all our endeavors.
- Innovation: We combine evidence-based methods with creative solutions to address complex challenges.
- Sustainability: We design interventions and strategies with long-term benefits for individuals, organizations, and communities in mind.
At Ngehus, we also focus on building capacity within organizations and communities. Rather than providing temporary solutions, our goal is to empower individuals and teams with the knowledge, tools, and strategies they need to continue driving positive change independently. By equipping our partners with practical skills and insights, we help ensure that the impact of our work extends far beyond immediate projects.
Our projects often involve addressing challenges that stem from the complex nature of human behavior and social interactions. Conflicts, disengagement, inefficiencies, and misunderstandings can often be traced to gaps in awareness or communication. Through our training, guidance, and consulting, we help organizations and communities better understand these dynamics, anticipate potential challenges, and implement strategies that foster collaboration, trust, and positive outcomes.
We take pride in our ability to adapt to different contexts and needs. Every organization, community, or project is unique, and we tailor our methods accordingly. This flexibility allows us to deliver services that are not only effective but also culturally sensitive, contextually appropriate, and socially responsible. Our commitment to listening and understanding ensures that each initiative is aligned with the goals, values, and expectations of those we serve.
As we look to the future, Association Ngehus remains committed to expanding our impact, deepening our expertise, and forging partnerships that align with our values. We aim to continue supporting projects that create meaningful social change, strengthen human connections, and promote inclusive, resilient communities. Our vision is to be a recognized hub for knowledge, guidance, and human-centered innovation in social psychology and human sciences, serving as a trusted partner for organizations and communities seeking to make a difference.
In essence, Association Ngehus is more than an organization; it is a platform for transformation, learning, and collaboration. We are dedicated to empowering individuals, strengthening organizations, and contributing to communities in ways that are sustainable, inclusive, and socially responsible. Through training, guidance, and consulting, we aim to ensure that every project we engage with benefits from evidence-based insights, human-centered practices, and a commitment to positive change.
