DonOthèque Project L3 MC, Annecy, 2025
How can we make culture accessible to all students? How can we give books a second life by sharing them rather than letting them gather dust? Our idea: a free book donation box open to everyone.

Take, drop off, share: culture at your fingertips!

Good habits are learned from an early age! That's why we decided to work with a primary school: the "eco-school" of Les Glaisins in Annecy-le-Vieux. The children went on a trip to the Parc des Glaisins to collect as much waste as possible, then returned to class for fun activities on eco-friendly habits: recycling, waste sorting, composting, quizzes, and more. It was a busy day, and at the end, the children received their "eco-school" diplomas!

At the end of this project, we realized that every improvement, even the smallest, represents real hope for the future. "Alone we go faster, together we go further!"

This year, our "Forum" event could not take place at the IAE due to the COVID crisis... So we came up with a digital forum: "Green For'Homme – There's no Planet B." Our videos illustrated in a powerful and entertaining way the many questions we asked ourselves: How can we live differently in Chambéry? How will we feed ourselves tomorrow? What if your car pollutes more than you think? How can we consume locally and fairly in the future? What is the hidden side of fast fashion and its alternatives?
Wondering what "buying local" means for modern consumers? We have the answer! We decided to look at consumer expectations in France, Brazil, and Sweden. We also examined changes related to the COVID-19 crisis, as well as the role of labels, which can sometimes be misleading!
