[BONI.D] COLORI, learning to code without a screen
Because technology is an integral part of our way of life as of the 21st century general knowledge ; because learning to code helps to develop and reinforce many other skills ; and for many other more than relevant reasons, Amelia Matar, now associated with Perrine Legal, founded COLORI a little over two years ago. Inspired by Montessori pedagogy, the Colori method allows young people to learn and master the computer language without a screen. The code can indeed be learned without using digital media to limit the exposure of the youngest. Colori offers training and workshops from 3 years. An educational initiative that we applaud!

[BONI.D] Les Frigos Solidaires, how to reduce food waste by donation
[BONI.D] For a few years, Les Frigos Solidaires have spread in many French cities to provide supplies to the most deprived. The simplicity of the concept to share without wasting, ongoing on years, makes this initiative a true citizenship demonstration, based upon everyone’s humanity to operate. Les Grandes Idées wants to highlight this idea because if more than 22 “fair fridges” have been settled in France, many pools are currently open to found new ones everywhere! http:/bit.ly/32Gdg22
