This publication tells the story of the Academy of Local Animator as an idea that truly engages people and inspires change in local communities. We show not only what the participants' journey looked like, but also what their energy and ideas have achieved over the years. Here you will find stories of initiatives that show that courage and creativity can go hand in hand with responsibility for others. We want to show that joint action and mutual support can be the beginning of lasting change. It is a story that aims to inspire similar things to happen in other places.

Co-financed by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage as part of the SYNERGIE grant program.
