Alter-Places has launched a questionnaire-based survey campaign between May and October 2024 targeting Alternative Cultural Places in order to map the sustainable practices put in place by these places, and the tensions they encounter.

The survey aims :  

1. to identify the diversity of existing sustainability practices, 

2. to reveal issues, tensions in their implementation

3. to understand how practices could be disseminated from one organization to another. 

With this survey, we aim at helping Alternative Cultural Places to adapt to effects of climate change in the best social, economic and cultural conditions possible, while engaging in actions fostering ecological transition. 

This survey was initially elaborated by University of Sorbonne Nouvelle, the UFISC and La Main (in the ECO-Art project co-funded by French Ministry of Culture and the LabEx ICCA), as a part of the Alter-Places project.

This project encompasses various research methodologies including statistical analysis, workshops, and individual interviews.
