François-Xavier Bagnoud
François-Xavier Bagnoud, son of Albina du Boisrouvray and Bruno Bagnoud, was born in Geneva on September 11, 1961. He grew up in Paris, where he obtained his baccalaureate and diploma from the American School. By the end of his secondary education, he was already a licensed and experienced pilot. On January 14, 1986, François-Xavier tragically lost his life during a helicopter mission in the Malian desert. In 1989, his parents, family and friends founded the François-Xavier Bagnoud Foundation and Association to continue his life-saving work and perpetuate the values of generosity and compassion that guided his life.
Our founder
Albina du Boisrouvray is one of those figures who mark their era through the grandeur of their work and the force of their action.
The People Who Bring Our Commitment to Life
"The future of public health and the future of human rights have now become mutually interdependent to an unprecedented degree".
In my opinion, the "FXBVillage" is a real success!
"The support we have received from Albina du Boisrouvray and her Association is invaluable."
Our FXB Climate advocates program
Young people are at the forefront of social change, and in the current climate crisis, young activists give hope that real change is possible. Our FXB Climate Advocates provide young climate activists with the knowledge and tools to mobilize climate action at local, national and international levels.
