Are you wondering how this was possible?
It is certainly partly a small miracle.
In part, all this is possible thanks to the generosity and sensitivity of small but wonderful communities of special people who, from Asti to Favara, decide to dedicate time and energy to give the girls and boys of their territories a special opportunity.
A little like the Scouts to give you a role model.
Farm guest of Festival de la Ville sauvage.
“The wild city festival creates some commonality in a society in need, it launches bridges by provoking encounters, gives voice to those who are rarely heard, tackles the subject of the city in complete freedom to reinvent it. The wild city festival is a generous contribution, an important initiative for architecture, urbanity, solidarity, humanity. It is in Marseille, its flavors are subtle. They are familiar to me. For all these reasons and many more, I support the wild city festival.” Emmanuel Launiau, President of the QUARTUS group
