Marine BAYER

equipe_aidocean
Ex-helicopter fighter pilot in the French Navy. She captained the unit of navy helicopters during the hostage crisis of the “Ponant” cruise ship, wherein Somalian pirates took the crew of the cruise liner hostage until they were rescued by the French navy, including Marine. After this mission, she was decorated with the Legion of Honor. Marine is also the heroine of the book “ Entre Ciel et Mère ” which recounts her career as a part of the helicopter unit aboard navy warships. 
 
For the past 10 years, she has been a nurse in various departments (emergency, palliative care, aged care, diabetes, etc) both in a team and as an independent. She has a DU (university diploma) in tropical medicine and is now president of Océan Vacci Tour and a member of IHEDN (Institute for Advanced Studies in National Defence).

In 2009, I retired from the navy and took a big gamble.  To become a nurse with the dream of travelling the world offering health care.

OUR PROJECTS

Our goal is to carry out humanitarian missions with simplicity and maneuverbility as focal pointsThanks to their small size, our teams are able to be flexibile, adapting to changing circumstances and solving problems as they come up.

Our primary objective is to offer our help to the most in need, especially those situated in regions where larger NGOs cannot reach.

Thanks to the support of local authorities, we can integrate into our projects research, education, training, and prevention.

We also hope to inspire the public, students, entrepreneurs, and societal leaders. Everyone in their own way can help us meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.
