What is “Grundtvig”?
The Grundtvig programme funds a variety of different projects and offers a range of opportunities for all sizes and kinds of organisations in the UK to get involved in European working.
The Grundtvig programme has two key objectives: to respond to the challenges of an aging
population in Europe; and to help provide adults with pathways to improve
their knowledge and competences.

Partners cont.
Pistes Solidaire, France
In Marseille, Pistes Solidaire are starting to develop a local partnership with a network called "solidar gardens of the Mediterranean area" they are small gardens or parks given from the state to citizens so that they can garden and share experiences.
The concept is great, because some gardens are for 1 family, but inside the same space, there is a collective one, where the animator/trainer can organize trainings, invite schools, organize small dinners, etc. The project is very nice, mostly because it is in the middle of huge buildings, so a kind of green in the city,
