🏢 About the local organisation
Following an assessment made in 2015 in Charleroi, two observations were made. The first was a desertification of activities in the outlying districts of Charleroi. The second was the fact that many children never left their neighborhood during the holidays and that there were no organized activities for them. Based on the movements Streets reserved for children (France) and Play Street (UK), the project 1, 2, 3 Soleil! was born in the city of Charleroi. The point is to go down in the street, in collaboration with Charleroi's association network and citizens, in order to bring to the children activities that they are not used to do or shows made by artists they are not used to see...
