Solution
For 17 years, Aremacs has been contributing to the ecological and social transition by mobilizing through events. The association provides concrete support to organizers of cultural, sporting and social events towards eco-responsibility, while engaging and raising awareness among citizens in a positive and inclusive way. Also, Aremacs accompanies all stakeholders in the reduction, responsible management and recovery of waste.
In addition, Aremacs promotes behavioral change among teams and audiences and mobilizes its volunteers on environmental topics. It also engages the entire event industry in its transition by bringing it into dialogue and supporting the emergence of collective and territorial solutions. Finally, it works with local authorities and national institutions to encourage the transformation of public policies.

Aremacs Awards 2023: our Bordeaux branch honors its volunteers!
Last month, the teams at our Bordeaux branch dedicated their monthly aperitif to those without whom we wouldn't exist: our volunteers!
At the Maison de la Nature et de l'Environnement, 10 volunteers were honored in various categories for the 2023 season: the person most present on the ground, the quiet force, the female and male revelations...
The Aremacs Awards trophies were designed using gloves, which we use at events to pick up litter. Cleverly painted gold and solidified with a cup inside, this nod to our association's flagship activity has made other branches envious!
Thanks to all our volunteers, past and present, for their support and commitment. Thank you to our employees for their daily work. And thank you for supporting us by becoming a sponsor!
