The social and solidarity economy at the heart of economic life: supporting the development of third places and creative spaces for economic cooperation (emergence, help to create and run venues around a local supply chain — food, materials, energy, circular economy, etc. — coworking spaces, business incubators, etc.); networking, running and promoting these local economic spaces. Continuing the momentum around the circular economy and energy for ever greater sobriety: developing innovative projects and consolidating local initiatives on recycling and waste recovery; raising awareness, advising, informing and supporting people on waste sorting, recycling and energy saving (electricity, water); tackling fuel poverty in housing and helping families adopt eco-friendly habits; passing on local know-how in construction and renovation with eco-materials; creating resource centres, training and events, and supporting networking on energy savings, housing, the environment and waste.
