in Europe

Our project was born in France in 2019. In 2025, we are giving it an international dimension. With the complicity of ÉTUDES ET CHANTIERS, we are forming a partnership with two other structures to develop this project in Europe. In Portugal, ACRADE SALAMANDRA ACTIVA ; in Türkiye, IKOS.

This project benefits from the support of the European Union.

Kick Off Meeting

From March 15th to 17th, 2025, we met for a three-day workshop. This kick-off meeting allowed us to get to know each other better and to project ourselves more concretely into this project.

Our meeting took place in Vila de Marmeleira, Portugal, where we were offered to present our project during a local event organized by Produçoes Fixe. This presentation brought together more than fifty people. On this occasion, we were also able to screen a film, “Vila de Marmeleira faz um filme!”, which POINT BARRE had made in 2012 with the help of children from the village. Some of them were present in the audience.

The event continued with a moment of conviviality around French songs.

During these working days, we were able to refine each other’s missions and responsibilities, adjust and concretely launch activities.

To get into the action, we carried out initial interviews to present the project, where everyone was able to be in front of and behind the camera.

At the end of week, we went to Fátima to see the place where our action will take place in Octobre 2025.

But, first, let’s meet in April in Le Mans.

See you soon !
