The local artist OTOM from WHOLE STREET painted a beautiful mural in the Recyclerie of the social association GALICE. The big mural is inside the atelier rooms and cannot be seen from the outside, so you have to go there during the opening hours.
Recycleries play a crucial role in waste management and the promotion of sustainability by offering a range of services to users. These structures give a second life to objects, reducing the volume of waste sent to landfill and contributing to a circular economy. The repair workshops within the recycling centers refurbish the objects collected, which are then sold in solidarity stores. This offers users the chance to buy quality products at affordable prices, while supporting an ecological and economic initiative.
Some recycling centers offer home clearance services for quality items such as antique furniture and antiques. This extends their action beyond the immediate neighborhood, optimizing the recovery and valorization of objects. In addition to practical services, recycling centers organize a range of events and educational activities to raise awareness of environmental issues and promote sustainable practices.
Workshops are organized to teach users how to repair, recycle and reuse various objects. These workshops include bicycle repair, creating objects from recycled materials, and making homemade products such as natural cosmetics. Recycleries collaborate with schools to offer educational events, aimed at raising awareness among children and teenagers of waste management and the importance of sustainability. These programs include hands-on workshops, tours of the recycling center, and participatory science projects.
Regular events, such as barter markets, repair cafés and open days, are organized to encourage community participation and promote the values of the circular economy. These events help create social bonds and strengthen community cohesion around environmental issues. Recycleries also run awareness-raising campaigns on eco-gestures, waste reduction and biodiversity protection. These initiatives include educational gardens, information sessions on composting, and ecological challenges to actively involve residents in preserving the environment. – Galice
