Solution
Our philosophy:
Awareness-raising without moralizing;Working with everyone;Making change a positive process around concrete alternatives.Then we take action by encouraging children and young people to become drivers of change, by inviting practitioners to commit to a responsible approach, by supporting tourism players, by involving citizens and elected representatives. Boosted by the tools of popular education and doped with concrete actions for transition, we invest ourselves in energizing the relationship between all these players. Our strength lies in always being on the move, daring and innovating! In our actions, we strive every day to embody the change we wish to see in the world.

Why we love it?
We love this association whose ambition is its watchword. In order to combat the scourge of waste invading our mountains, Mountain Riders has chosen to tackle the root of the problem. In addition to their litter-picking efforts, they have undertaken a number of awareness-raising initiatives!
The meaning of our actions lies in education, training and awareness-raising: helping people to understand what's at stake, giving them a sense of direction, accepting debates and ideas, reflecting together in order to take action.
