In the spring of 2020, a group of colleagues from EU Staff for Climate started a fund to demonstrate our solidarity with the communities hit hard by the COVID pandemic.
Since then, nearly 2,800 current and former EU institution staff members have joined us to collect more than 2 million euros and support 127 projects in 24 countries around Europe, first through the COVID fund and then through the EU Staff Fund for Fair and Sustainable Future.
This November, we would like to celebrate these milestones together.

“Maison Renard” by Alexandre Dewez, followed by an exchange with the artist.
| Maison Renard by Alexandre Dewez Bertrand is convinced that the world is on the brink of collapse, faced with climate change, natural disasters, nuclear threats, and resource depletion. Fortunately, his company claims to possess THE solution. Join us for an insightful presentation of the B.A.D. (Base autonome durable) – the self-sustaining base designed to save those who can afford it from impending catastrophe. As the reality of the crisis looms, Maison Renard offers a satirical and thought-provoking look at survivalism and collapsology. This show, crafted using data from the scientific world, is as humorous as it is cynical, exploring themes of societal collapse, self-sufficiency, and the true victims of such an event. By the end of the show, you’ll have a new perspective on survival. |
