A mountain in transition

Since 2016, over1,000 beneficiaries, in school, out-of-school, integration and vocational training settings, with audiences as diverse as youth, families, adults in professional situations, young people and adults in custody, disabled or otherwise, have been able to discover the mountains and their exceptional environment.
Long-term, these projects mix indoor activities, day trips, and itinerant stays, with nights in refuges, under the stars, under tarpaulins, in trees or simply in tents. And encounters with those who live from the mountains, in the mountains.

While we're taking these audiences out into nature, environmental issues also continue to gain momentum: climate disruption is more topical than ever, with summers of flooding, drought, forest fires and storms, and the loss of biodiversity continuing to accelerate. There's no shortage of challenges for those who intend to help solve the ecological crisis and commit to eco-citizenship. 

 

Nature, the mountains, and their environmental and cultural heritage, are for us tools/means that have as their purpose:  the living-together,  eco-citizenship,  "eco-empowerment".
Ambitious objectives, which play above all a role of aiming, of azimuth, of direction to follow, without however defining precisely the path to follow. 

Thank you again for your support which brings these projects to life! 

𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 🎇 The first step on our path to a Zero Waste Mountain in 2030.
𝟒 𝟔𝟖𝟓 👨‍👩‍👧 participants (local authorities, volunteers, economic players...) We are delighted to have shared these moments of commitment together!
𝟖𝟎 ⛰️ pick-ups organized this year (60% of which were autonomously organized by the destinations, well done!)
𝟓𝟖 𝟕𝟕𝟔 🚬 cigarette butts collected (the waste star we can't seem to dethrone)
𝟏𝟖 tons of litter found (that's a lot to bear...)
𝟒𝟗 📜 signatory structures of the Zero Waste Mountain charter
𝟐𝟎𝟑𝟎 📅 the year to achieve a Zero Waste
𝟎 ❌ is the amount of waste we'd like to collect (it's our favorite number)

The full balance sheet, with all the figures and the comparison with last year, will be in a few months. Many more "Adopt'1 Spots" are planned for the autumn.

Thank you all again for your vital support in this wonderful adventure! We'll keep you posted on the next steps. 🙏
