Supporting students

Since 2018, an increasing number of projects have been conducted with young people from the Louis-Pasteur aquaculture high school in La Canourgue, the CFA-CFPPA of Lozère, in Marvejols and the François-Rabelais high school in Civergols, in Saint-Chély-d'Apcher. Interventions by agents to present what a Park is, discuss the issues of the area: agriculture, water, forest, biodiversity or to support students in their projects.

Sustainable awareness

“It's a very positive partnership“, continues Geneviève Gasq-Barès, elected representative of the Park in charge of territorial education. “Students discover what a Park is and think about its issues… In Condom d'Aubrac, they welcomed two young people who, after their studies in your establishments, created a market gardening activity and settled here permanently“, she says. This signature formalizes this partnership with the Park and with the territory, and perpetuates it for sustainable awareness of local issues among young people.
