R2D2
Led by R2D2, a collective that brings together regional networks to support festivals in their sustainable development, Festivals En Mouvement (FEM) project aims to reduce the environmental footprint related to the movement of festivalgoers and teams. 50 festivals nationwide are invested in this project to collectively think about greener alternatives for transport.
Did you know that 70% of the festival’s carbon footprint is caused by public travel ? FEM decided to grab the subject ! This action-research project, established and launched in 2023, consists on three phases :Did you know that 70% of the festival’s carbon footprint is caused by public travel ? FEM decided to grab the subject ! This action-research project, established and launched in 2023, consists on three phases :
- A national survey on the mobility practices of festivalgoers and teams conducted by Sociotopie (2023).
- Two seasons of experimentations in festivals around carpooling, cycling and a national communication campaign on sustainable mobility in festivals, and the organization of regional consultations combining Culture and Mobility (2024-2025).
- A capitalization phase of results and good practices (2025-2026).
This time of exchange will allow members of the collective to detail this project, festivals that have participated in the collective process to provide feedback on this first year of experimentations and to explain the perspectives of the FEM project in the coming years.
