Launched less than a year ago by Claire Pétreault, former communication manager of ChangeNow, the Pépites Vertes site is now moving up a gear: in addition to its directory, its videos and its podcasts which list more than "60 profiles and 200 testimonials" of young active workers, the new media officially becomes an association.

A professional network

It is also creating its “Club des nuggets”, a national professional network to help young people active in the ecological transition to train, gain media visibility and meet each other. Open for registration since Monday, with an annual membership fee of 90 euros, the first 2021-2022 promotion of the club will benefit in particular from training in public speaking, modules on "understanding digital responsible "or" discover the life cycle analysis ".

To support this initiative,
