OUR previous editions
first EDITION 2021 in Forcalquier
Between social acceptability and health requirements, we managed to bring about this meeting which seemed, more than ever, essential to us. We wish to share this ancestral, scientific, cultural and even spiritual knowledge with as many people as possible, all in the service of Life.
The departure was initially planned for the African continent, but life decided otherwise and it was Forcalquier (04) who accepted our request! Some of our speakers were unfortunately unable to cross the sea, others braved it convinced of the cultural dimension, the artistic dynamic and the social diversity that inhabited us and still inhabits us.
The speakers trusted us and we placed our trust in them!
350 people marched for 2 days, it was joyful, moving and intense!

Second edition 2022 In Forcalquier
Our planet is changing. Aware of this transformation, we have the choice to believe in Life and in the human strength to defend it. In this world that is re-drawing itself, there are these people with all their knowledge and human capacities focused on repair, construction and education.
