Solidarity and mutual aid Protecting nature and the environment Dijon

Latitude 21 is the name of the House of Architecture and Environment of Dijon Metropole. It is aimed at the general public and in particular at children and families. Its objective: to educate about the environment for sustainable development, and to raise awareness of the challenges of architecture and urban planning. Its actions are very concrete and include exhibitions, films and events. Workshops are organized for families. Children and their parents can build feeders, nesting boxes, insect hotels - several hundred are made and installed in the agglomeration each year - or even herbariums and plant frescos. Families take advantage of their visit to use the educational games. A full programme of activities, in class or on the premises, is offered to schoolchildren from kindergarten to high school, with no less than 30 different themes. Latitude 21 also rents out themed exhibitions. The building that houses Latitude 21 is worth a visit: it is the first low-energy building to be built in Burgundy. Finally, the public institution participates in the magazine Archimag, which focuses on contemporary architecture in Burgundy and is available on its premises.
