Introducing young people to sustainable entrepreneurship

Dear difteur-ses,

Today, we present our "Faisons Demain" program.

What is it?

👉 an initiative that offers fun, cooperative educational workshops to teach young people the keys to thinking and entrepreneurship 🌱

🎙 They were 39 students from the BUT GACO at the IUT de Nantes. And they shared their feelings following a workshop with us. They left with:

keys to thinking and building sensibly

an awareness of the climate situation and the importance of preserving the planet

discovery of an innovative business model

more knowledge about environmentally conscious companies

A big THANK YOU for your support!

Have we ever told you our story?

It's time to come back to it, because that's where the soul of our commitment lies.

In 2017, Charles Barreau attended a conference hosted by a Belgian economist, who presented an innovative concept: the Blue Economy. For the first time, Charles hears a different, hopeful message:

What if nature was no longer seen only as a source of raw materials, but also as a source of knowledge and inspiration?

In this new way of thinking, the limits are no longer those of resources, but those of our imagination.

Touched by this vision, Charles manages to federate 17 other business leaders, all driven by the same desire: to create new economic models and transform the old ones to help build a desirable future for their children.

Together, they invite all players in society to join them - students, retirees, teachers, schools, universities, local authorities... - to reflect, question, and co-construct a common frame of reference, a guide, a compass, based on 9 fundamentals that set the course.

Thus Ruptur was born, and with it the FAISONS DEMAIN program.

For there are already 150 young people, since the beginning of the year, who have had the chance to appropriate our tools to build meaningful projects.

Together, LET'S MAKE TOMORROW!

Dear Difteur-ses,

Did we tell you about our second workshop FAISONS DEMAIN? We've called it:

To learn how to build a project's economic model and challenge it in light of environmental, social and economic issues.

We'll show you in pictures what it's all about:

- A card game of key questions per BMC (Business Model Canvas) box created on the basis of our Ruptur 9 Foundations compass (contributing to the common good, environmental impact, collaborative, transposable to others, inclusive, inspiring for younger generations, etc.).

- A card game of key questions per BMC (Business Model Canvas) box created on the basis of our Ruptur 9 Foundations compass (contributing to the common good, environmental impact, collaborative, transposable to others, inclusive, inspiring for younger generations, etc.).

- A poster of the BMC which, thanks to these questions, will become a BMC EI for "Environmental and Inclusive".

Young people are resourceful, they're well aware of today's issues, they're even fed up with being harped on... Right now, they need help to find out how they can take action. So Ruptur is here, and thanks to your support, we'll be able to roll out this workshop more widely!

A big THANK YOU to you!

Dear difteurs,

This month, we've taken the time to look back on an incredible year for Faisons Demain 🚀

🔹 A new mission manager joined us in April 2024.

🔹 A program that's growing and impacting ever more young people: we've counted over 1350 young people and their supervisors sensitized since the launch of this project!

📢 On the road to 2025!

Our ambition remains the same: to pass on to young people the keys to a different way of doing business!

💡 Entrepreneurship to innovate and let the impossible express itself.

🌱 Entrepreneurship that respects our resources and those of future generations.

🤝 Entrepreneurship for an inclusive economy where everyone finds their place.

🎓 A back-to-school look to the future!

On January 7, we led a atelier Faisons Demain with students in their 2ᵉ year of BUT Génie Mécanique at the IUT de Nantes.

These work-study students leave for the company with a question guide based on our 9 fundamentals.

An enriching moment, thanks in particular to the testimony of one of our volunteers, also a work-study student. He shared his experience on the legitimacy of young people to question their company on sometimes sensitive themes, depending on the state of progress of its environmental and social transformation.

💙 A big thank you, dear difteurs, for your support!

Dear difteurs,

In recent months, the bold, pragmatic spirit that is RUPTUR's flagship value has come to the fore thanks to your support. We're experimenting with a "FAISONS DEMAIN" pathway with the Pays de la Loire PEPITE scheme.

PEPITE STARTER is a program to support entrepreneurship. It is aimed at all students and young graduates in higher education, whatever their institution, training course, nature and maturity of their project.

The PEPITE des Pays de la Loire is led by Nantes Université in coordination with the Universities of Angers and Le Mans.

PEPITE's missions are:

In a rapidly changing world, it is essential to rethink entrepreneurship to build a creative, inclusive and sustainable economy. With this in mind, we have proposed a 3-step pathway to "MAKE TOMORROW".

Dear Captains,

We are delighted to share with you the progress of the "Faisons Demain" program for this first half of 2024-2025. Our project manager has scheduled 8 dates in various schools, including 2 new ones in Loire Atlantique. These upcoming sessions will raise awareness of the creative and sustainable economy among more than 300 young people, and that's thanks to you and your support! 

Some new features: games, itineraries with visits to inspiring companies will be tried out this semester. 

This roll-out is prompting us to expand our community of volunteers, currently made up of 10 people. Our next challenge will be to work on an integration and training program to match our ambitions.

Other events are being organized to continue making "Faisons Demain" an indispensable tool in students' projects.

Thank you for your invaluable support. Together, we're building a better future! 

Dear captains,
 
Thanks to your support, we've been able to create a video on the 9 Ruptur foundations, our compass to help pupils, students or entrepreneurs set a course for positive impact!
This original tool, devised by our association from the outset, is the basis of all our workshops.
This compass helps students and their teachers to question themselves 360° and think about how their project could create economic value, often necessary for its sustainability, as well as environmental and social value to be truly useful and contribute to the good of all.
This video allows us to present the 9 foundations in a more lively and dynamic way.
In April, we were delighted to welcome our very first Transmission Officer, Mélanie, a sign of Ruptur's determination to place new generations at the heart of its action.
Mélanie's tasks over the next few months will be to roll out the Faisons Demain workshops to a greater number of schools, federate a committed and sustainable community of volunteer facilitators and continue to professionalize our tools and workshops. 

Mélanie has already committed to a series of workshops that will be delivered in June by our volunteers to 75 5th grade students. 
These workshops will enable them to apply the 9 fundamentals to a project on the theme of water that they are leading this year. 

The coming weeks are also devoted to meeting new schools to prepare for the start of the 2024 school year! 

Dear Captains,
Thanks to your support, the last quarter of 2023 has been rich in activity around our Faisons Demain project:
> We have raised awareness among 170 students and their teachers (in high schools and business schools), i.e. 10 3-hour workshops and 10 volunteers mobilized.
> We have created and broadcast on social networks a communication campaign targeted on Faisons Demain to make our actions more widely known and get new patrons on board by our side. Find it on the youtube link below and don't hesitate to share it!
> We have launched the recruitment of a Transmission Officer who will reinforce the team from 01/02 and will be 100% dedicated to the deployment and promotion of Faisons Demain in schools. We'll have the pleasure of telling you more in a few weeks!
<> Finally, we'll be experimenting with impact measurement tools in the coming months to assess the effectiveness and impact of our interventions with young people.
See you soon and thank you again for your support as 2023 draws to a close!! 

Dear Captains,
Thank you so much for choosing RUPTUR's "Faisons Demain" project aimed at the younger generation! Thanks to your support during the "Un cadeau pour la terre" operation, RUPTUR has launched 5 new workshops at 2 higher education establishments: ICAM Vendée and IUT de Nantes.In Vendée, 13 students and their teachers were introduced to a new way of thinking about projects and entrepreneurship, putting environmental issues, inclusion, local issues and the preservation of the commons at the heart of their thinking... 
A total of 73 students and their teachers were similarly introduced at the IUT de Nantes. 5 volunteers accompanied us and gave a total of 14H of their time to carry out these actions. 
Many other workshops are already scheduled, but we are already very grateful to you for having facilitated the realization of these first 5 since our presence on the Captain Cause platform!!
Good to you,
The RUPTUR team
