A different kind of tourism in Marseille

What if your holiday became a community adventure?
The Parcours Engagé project invites visitors to Marseille to devote a few hours to civic and ecological actions. In partnership with the Cité des Transitions, the Sofitel Marseille and the Tourist Office, this trail offers 7 local activities to help you discover the city in a different way, by contributing to its social and environmental well-being.

Waste collection, urban gardening, ecological challenges, coastal observation… Discover, explore, take action: your solidarity adventure in Marseille starts here!

The Solidarity Agenda

La Cité des Transitions diary

The Cité des Transitions offers a diary, bringing together a range of citizen events such as waste collections and other collaborative activities.

Benenova

Benenova supports associations and volunteers in their solidarity projects in Marseille. This association offers you the chance to take part in voluntary work for the benefit of associations involved in solidarity and/or the environment. To find out more and register, follow the link to their calendar.

Autonomous actions

Ma petite planète

Ma Petite Planète is a team-based ecological challenge for friends and family. By downloading the application, visitors will be offered a host of eco-citizen activities and actions that they can adopt during their stay and keep as a habit when they get home. Resolutely educational, the application details the positive impact of each action and encourages people to take action by comparing them with hundreds of other teams.

Biolit

The Planète Mer association’s BIOLIT initiative invites you to observe the flora and fauna on the seashore, take photos and send your observations to scientists via a dedicated platform. Everyone, whatever their age or knowledge, can contribute to a better understanding of the state of coastal health and the impact of climate change and pollution, while discovering the richness of marine life. The data collected will be used to feed the studies carried out by the Muséum national d’histoire naturelle and to help protect marine environments.

Our Climate Gestures

Nos Gestes Climat, an interactive web application on the ADEME platform, allows citizens/visitors to calculate their consumption climate footprint in 10/15 minutes. Calculate your carbon and water footprints and leave with some sound advice.

La Goutte Bleue

La Goutte Bleue is a blue seaweed-based bag made in France that invites you to collect 30 litres of rubbish abandoned in the countryside. The bag goes beyond its primary function of containing rubbish to become a real messenger: I’m doing my bit for the planet, I’m picking up litter before it reaches the sea. Action to be carried out independently, by collecting a “Blue Drop” bag from partner accommodation providers.

Solidarity events

The urban farmer

Since 2017, Paysan Urbain Marseille Métropole has been working to promote nature in the city and combat precariousness through its socio-professional integration activities. This association invites you to come and garden with them to discover the principles of agroecology in an urban environment. Accompanied by garden supervisors and beneficiaries undergoing support programmes, you will have the opportunity to carry out garden landscaping and gardening work (watering, sowing, planting, etc.), take part in creative and fun workshops, and harvest and taste herbal teas.
