Let us meet at next festival

"Val-de-Marne is proud of managing water in the county, but mainly of being active in this field, of witnessing

  • ur experience, of giving the floor to

many, of hosting activists, of being involved in solidarity actions, of believing in dreams... That is the base

  • f our policy. I'm convinced that such

an ambitiousness is now essential. This very resource is flowing at our feet, full of risks but also of

  • promesses. It makes us face our

reponsibilities, and I'm sure of that : the experience we got, and the ways we work it out allow us to meet this challenge."

Conseil général of Val-de-Marne
