Beyond her professional activities, which led her to hold numerous positions within the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilitas.org\">family-owned MOBILITAS Group<\/a> and to be a member of its board of directors since 2016, she is above all a woman dedicated to social causes. She has been involved in numerous initiatives in the removals industry and other sectors for many years. In particular, Jo\u00eblle Castro founded the Val d&#8217;Oise Women Entrepreneurs Network in 2013 and participated in the creation of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lacmassoc.org\/\">Latin American &amp; Caribbean International Movers Association<\/a> (LACMA) Women&#8217;s Group in 2014. Within the MOBILITAS Group, she has always advocated for the employment of young people, in particular by contributing towards the development of the French International Internship Programme (known in France as VIE or Volontariat Interionational en Entreprise).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 180px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" lazyloaded\" style=\"width: 201px;\" title=\"Alain Taieb, Pr\u00e9sident du groupe Mobilitas\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/alain-taieb-president-du-groupe-mobilitas.jpg\" alt=\"Alain Taieb, Pr\u00e9sident du groupe Mobilitas\" width=\"180\" height=\"201\" data-src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/alain-taieb-president-du-groupe-mobilitas.jpg\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 201px;\" title=\"Alain Taieb, Pr\u00e9sident du groupe Mobilitas\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/alain-taieb-president-du-groupe-mobilitas.jpg\" alt=\"Alain Taieb, Pr\u00e9sident du groupe Mobilitas\" width=\"180\" height=\"201\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\" style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 12px;\"><strong>Alain Ta\u00efeb<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Jo\u00eblle Castro and Alain Ta\u00efeb, two figures in the mobility and records management sectors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alain Ta\u00efeb, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the MOBILITAS Group, is also an inductee of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iamovers.org\/ProgramsEducation\/Content.aspx?ItemNumber=2211\">the IAM Hall of Honor<\/a>, having received this esteemed distinction in 2012.
