The Covid-19 crisis has severely worsened the living conditions of millions of vulnerable people, pushing them into extremely critical situations: precariousness, isolation, psychological suffering, dropping out of school, etc. This crisis has highlighted the latent fragility of whole sections of society. Yet, other crises will come. Beyond emergency responses, it is now necessary to promote the development of new ways of life, production, housing, education, care, social organization, etc. The Fondation de France ‘Inventing The Future’ program was created at the beginning of the coronavirus health crisis to mobilize local French nonprofits that experiment, develop and share ambitious, long-lasting and innovative solutions to accelerate the transformation of our society.
