What Ginger INTERNATIONAL does

Ginger INTERNATIONAL is a French international development consulting firm (bureau d'étude) providing integrated technical assistance across public health, environment, and energy to government ministries, development agencies, and international donors in developing and transition countries. Established in January 2022 through the merger of Ginger BURGEAP's international department with its subsidiary Ginger CREDES (founded 1984), the firm operates as a wholly-owned entity within Groupe Ginger, headquartered at Issy-les-Moulineaux, France. Its service portfolio is organised into a Health Department (vaccination, health systems strengthening, pharmaceutical policy, digital health) and an Environment Department (climate adaptation, ecological transition, environmental governance), with explicit cross-cutting positioning around Universal Health Coverage (UHC), One Health, and One Planet frameworks.

The company delivers consulting and technical-assistance projects — typically as consortium lead or partner — funded by Official Development Assistance from the European Union, AFD, Gavi, FFEM, and C2D. Named engagements span Ministries of Health in Lebanon, Mauritania, DRC, Côte d'Ivoire, RCA, and Ukraine; environmental governance work in Madagascar; green-building feasibility in Bangladesh; and circular-economy advisory for AccorInvest via sister firm Ginger DELEO. Pricing is project-based and negotiated directly with clients under institutional procurement frameworks; no public pricing or revenue figures are disclosed. The legal entity operating the website is CREDES (143 avenue de Verdun, 92442 Issy-les-Moulineaux), and the firm holds GDPR/RGPD-compliant data processing practices administered at Groupe Ginger level.
