Diwan Alomran (DIWAN ALOMRAN) announces its official registration in the French Republic as a non-profit association, following the completion of all approved legal procedures and the publication of the registration decision in the Official Journal of Associations in France. This development comes as part of Diwan Alomran’s expansion at both the European and international levels, strengthening its institutional presence and opening the door to broader partnerships with French and European entities working in the fields of urban development, environment, and human rights.
This registration is governed by the French legal framework for associations known as the Law of 1 July 1901 on the Association Contract, along with the related Decree of 16 August 1901 implementing its provisions. This framework regulates the establishment and operation of non-profit associations in France and grants them legal personality following declaration and publication in the Official Journal.
Pursuant to this registration, Diwan Alomran has established its registered office in the city of Enghien-les-Bains, France, in a step that consolidates this legal recognition and reinforces its role in supporting sustainable urban planning, protecting the urban environment, and advocating for the human right to adequate housing and a just city. The registration also enables Diwan Alomran to operate within official European frameworks and to develop cross-border projects focused on improving quality of life in cities and opposing interventions that harm the urban and environmental fabric.
Diwan Alomran affirms that its mission in France will continue to focus on raising public awareness of the importance of urban sustainability, documenting violations related to urban rights, and supporting the most vulnerable groups—particularly women, children, and refugees—through legal and social assistance. This includes promoting women’s participation in decision-making processes related to their lives and environments, and supporting their rights to education, healthcare, and decent work.
The official registration of Diwan Alomran in France represents a significant milestone in its institutional journey, granting it a legally recognized status at the European level and strengthening its capacity to build international alliances and implement development and human rights programs that serve cities and their inhabitants, in line with its vision of more just, equitable, and sustainable cities.
