CAI Namur (Centre d'action interculturelle de la province de Namur) is a Belgian non-profit organization (ASBL — Association Sans But Lucratif) operating as a Centre Régional d'Intégration (CRI) under the regional authority of Wallonia. Founded in 1985 as the Centre Socio-Culturel des Immigrés de la province de Namur (CSCIN) and later renamed, the organization delivers integration services to migrants, refugees, asylum seekers, undocumented persons (sans-papiers), unaccompanied minors (MENA), and Ukrainian nationals under temporary protection. Its service portfolio comprises eight reception offices (Bureaux d'accueil) across the province of Namur, individualized accompagnement, structured Parcours d'intégration, training programmes (Formations), a local action network (Réseau actions locales), awareness-raising (Sensibilisation), and policy advocacy (Interpellation), supported by thematic programmes spanning asylum, citizenship, French-language learning, housing, health, socio-legal issues, and anti-racism.

The organization operates without proprietary technology, delivering services through in-person consultations, by-appointment meetings, phone, and email. Its technology footprint is limited to a WordPress-based website (cainamur.be), newsletter email infrastructure, and social media presence on Facebook and LinkedIn. All services are provided free of charge to beneficiaries; no pricing structure, subscription model, or revenue-generating product exists.

The business model is a multi-source public-subsidy model. CAI Namur is funded by Wallonia (Service Public de Wallonie — Action sociale, as the competent regional authority for integration policy), the Province of Namur, the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles, and the European Social Fund (FSE), with operational collaboration from Le Forem on employment integration. The entity is GDPR-compliant (N° d'entreprise 0429.681.789, RPM Tribunal de Namur), headquartered at Rue Docteur Haibe 2, Saint-Servais (Namur), and staffed by approximately 21 employees. In 2025 the organization marked 40 years of operation through a series of commemorative events and a partnership with IHOES to document its institutional history.
