Our environmental commitment is also reflected in our sociocultural programming. It features numerous conferences and film screenings followed by debates on the theme of ecological transition, allowing us to effectively contribute to raising public awareness. We have had the pleasure of welcoming speakers such as Rob Hopkins and Arthur Keller, among others. We also plan to create live performing arts productions from scratch (theater, dance, circus, performances, etc) that explore environmental issues, aiming to use art even more as a tool for civic reflections and awareness building.
However, we believe that beyond raising awareness, citizens need to acquire practical skills to engage more deeply in the transition movement. That is why we regularly organize a Repair Café as well as zero-waste workshops, which aim to provide participants with very concrete tools for environmental action. We currently offer 17 different workshops, including our "Eat Your Balcony" urban gardening sessions, leftover cooking, canning and biscuit making, upcycling and DIY natural cosmetics and household cleaning products.
Finally, all of our events, shows, and concerts are designed with sustainable scenography in mind. In doing so, we stand against the common practice in the cultural and event sectors buildings temporary sets or flooring for a single event only to discard all the materials afterward.
