Urban Hike in Paris – ENGSO Youth Committee member Augustine and Young Delegate Salomé join forces for a Move4Nature action
As an inspiring example of collaboration, ENGSO Youth Committee Member Augustine Libert, representing the French NOC, and ENGSO Youth Young Delegate Salomé Allain joined forces in Paris to organise a Move4Nature activity - this time, with an urban twist.
Taking place during the European Sustainable Development Week 2025 (September 18 – October 8) and within the framework of Move4Nature project, ENGSO Youth Committee member Augustine Libert, hosted a clean-up walk through the streets of Paris.
The concept was simple yet meaningful: a two-hour urban hike starting from the CNOSF headquarters and finishing at the Panthéon, passing through some of the city’s most charming neighbourhoods, including Cité des Fleurs, Butte aux Cailles, and the Latin Quarter.
The goal was to connect physical activity with ecological action, raising awareness and mobilising the sports community around environmental protection. Over the course of nearly 4 kilometres, participants collected around 5 kilograms of litter — a reminder that such initiatives remain essential, even in cities like Paris where cleaning services operate daily.
What began as a litter-picking hike soon became a warm and friendly moment of connection, proving once again that sport and sustainability go hand in hand.
