The UNF is pleased to present the work of Yannick Monget, who has been able to alert and inform the world of the dangers facing our planet.
H.E Christophe Giovannetti, President of the UNF, recommends that everyone buys and offers schools the book “TERRES D AVENIR”.
Yannick Monget is an environmentalist and author who founded in France the Symbiom group (www.symbiom.org) with a certain number of personalities known throughout the world for their commitments for the protection of the environment and the promotion of peace ( starting with Bertrand Piccard – Solar Impusle, which he is very close to, but also astronauts, scientists, representatives of indigenous communities, artists…).
His approach is based on the art he puts at the service of science to raise awareness and inform on environmental issues, threats to humanity and the planet, but also the solutions that exist. He does this through books (he is a novelist and screenwriter) and author of several photodocumentary books published by Martinière in France (the home of photographer Yann Arthus Bertrand and d’Al Gore). He uses digital
technologies in particular to create photorealistic visual works which serve as a matrix for his work (his works were exhibited in a number of countries, such as the city of Paris during COP21) published in numerous media (National Geographic , Geo…) and have been the subject of major international exhibitions. “Terres d’Avenir”, (in French -), is available directly for sale at a price of €
28 (contact our secretariat for the purchase procedure).
Yannick Monget has also created complete educational tools for schools, with educational advisers from national education in France (which include the book “Terres d’Avenir” * with in addition 6 textile fabrics presenting digital paintings, as well a teacher support document + a collection of environmental quotes + booklets for each student in the classes which can also be purchased for 190 euros).
This book and this educational tool have indeed been a real success with students. It is used in France in schools ranging from kindergarten to university (but especially college-high school). Some of its contents have even been used for subjects on the baccalaureate or in school textbooks from other countries (such as Germany), proof of the educational value of the book
UNF – 66 Avenue des Champs Elysées – 75008 – Paris – France
which explains through images and words to students the reality of our world, challenges, climate problems and solutions for the future.
In his search for partners and patrons to sell his books and educational tools, he is supported moreover by UNESCO which proposed to take charge of the distribution of books and tools in French-speaking countries, in France, but also in African countries where we know that schools would never have the opportunity to acquire this kind of quality educational tools and books.
Personalities also support him in this educational and awareness-raising project, such as Hindu Oumarou Ibrahim from Chad who offered to sponsor the operation alongside if it was intended for schools.
The UNF is pleased to support the initiative of Yannick Monget.
