An Opportunity to Unite Our Act with Surfrider Facilitators

A Unique Event to Celebrate and Grow Together

At the end of November, Act with Surfrider hosted the 2024 edition of its facilitator seminar. Held in the heart of Bordeaux, this two-day event brought together around fifteen facilitators from across France and Europe. These professionals are integral to delivering environmental awareness activities to businesses as part of Act with Surfrider’s mission.

The seminar offered a space for exchange, collaboration, and shared learning through a series of workshops and activities focused on ocean protection and sustainability. It was also an opportunity to reinforce team cohesion, strengthen relationships, and inspire new ideas for future projects.

A Seminar Dedicated to Facilitators and Collaboration

The facilitators who attended the seminar regularly support and co-lead workshops on ocean preservation with corporate clients. This event was designed to bring them together in a supportive, engaging, and educational setting.

Strengthening Professional Ties

Facilitators shared their field experiences, discussed challenges, and explored solutions together. These conversations fostered a stronger sense of community and purpose within the team. Through collective reflection, participants contributed to the direction of future initiatives.

Reflecting on Impact and Looking Ahead

The seminar began with a review of the results achieved in 2024. Facilitators were invited to discuss what worked, what could be improved, and what opportunities lie ahead in 2025. Topics included expanding CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) activities, launching new solidarity-based programs, and continuing to innovate in environmental education.

A Diverse and Enriching Program

The seminar's two days were filled with activities that combined learning, fun, and collaboration:

These activities were designed to strengthen the connection between team members while providing valuable learning experiences. The mix of serious reflection and light-hearted interaction created an atmosphere conducive to personal and professional growth.

Human Connections at the Heart of the Seminar

Building Cohesion Through Shared Experiences

A central theme of the seminar was building and maintaining strong team cohesion. Facilitators bonded through both structured workshops and informal moments, creating a more cohesive and resilient community.

Team-building activities like the Ocean Quiz and improvisation workshop offered opportunities to collaborate and appreciate each other’s strengths. These interactions foster a deeper sense of belonging and trust, which is essential for effective facilitation in corporate settings.

Celebrating Commitment and Energizing the Network

The seminar also served to recognize and celebrate the dedication of the facilitators throughout the year. The retrospective on past initiatives highlighted the collective achievements of the group and the positive impact of their work on ocean preservation.

Facilitators left the seminar with renewed energy, inspired by shared values and the collective mission of Act with Surfrider.
