We are very pleased to officially join forces with Départements de France.
This partnership aims to pool our resources and expertise to support local governments in their sustainable adaptation projects.
Practical solutions to support municipalities
Together, we are committed to providing municipalities—regardless of their size—with support and concrete solutions tailored to their specific needs: restoring permeable surfaces, creating cooling oases, sustainable resource management, and biodiversity conservation.
By drawing on the sharing of experiences and awareness-raising efforts by local elected officials, the goal is to enhance the consistency and effectiveness of sustainable development policies at the national level.
The Departments: Key Players in the Transition
The Departments form the foundation of our program, within which they play a fundamental role. They raise awareness, identify, and support municipalities ready to commit to sustainable land-use planning and landscape enhancement initiatives.
Their technical support enables local governments to incorporate greening and environmental management into their public policies.
The “Département Fleuri” label recognizes this commitment by honoring the departments most actively involved in promoting the Villes et Villages Fleuris label at the local level, thereby highlighting their contribution to the sustainable improvement of quality of life.
