Join one or more of our six volunteer missions and become a Water Guardian, workshop facilitator, or local ambassador for our programs. Six forms of engagement, simple, accessible, and impactful, are available to you, on board, on the quay, or from home.
Raise awareness in your community by organizing a public screening of Plastic Odyssey documentary films, followed by a discussion. This easy-to-implement action immediately builds collective awareness: the film clearly shows the reality of plastic pollution, and the discussion then invites everyone to react and propose solutions. You become a local rallying point, bringing together citizens, students, or colleagues who leave feeling more motivated to take action in turn.
and secure the necessary authorization: community hall, school, non-profit cinema, etc.
within your community: posters, social media, mailings.
arrange the film and the equipment: projector, screen, etc.
welcome the audience and introduce the documentary film.
after the screening: facilitate the discussion using the discussion guide provided.
with a collective call to action (for example, an invitation to join a future mission or to sign a local pledge).
Invite a school and its students to join the Plastic Odyssey adventure and work together to create a “plastic-free zone to protect,” co-managed by the students and the Plastic Odyssey crew. This project empowers students and sparks their desire to learn by connecting them directly with the Plastic Odyssey explorers and giving them the tools to take action in their own communities.
to present the concept (school leadership, teachers) and secure approval.
to be transformed (e.g. playground, school garden).
by regularly checking in with the class.
Facilitate a creative, collaborative workshop that brings together a small group (students, colleagues, neighbors). Using the Solutions Mural kit on plastic pollution (a collaborative educational game), you help participants connect the causes and consequences of plastic pollution, then imagine concrete solutions. This engaging format gets everyone involved right away: each person contributes to the solutions puzzle and leaves with a clear understanding of the actions that can be taken at the local level.

of 5–20 interested participants: school, workplace, association.
white paper table covering, illustrated thematic cards (provided).
in three phases: collective mapping of a plastic’s life cycle, building the “wall of consequences,” and discovering the mosaic of concrete solutions.
encourage everyone to share their perspectives and record action ideas.

Bring the spirit of exploration to your community! A micro-expedition brings together a small group (friends, neighbors, colleagues) to clean up a specific site: a beach, river, forest, or polluted neighborhood. The objective is to remove as much plastic as possible, identify sources of pollution, and propose local solutions (collection points, community recycling, waste inventories). This action has an immediate and visible impact: the site becomes cleaner again, and you can clearly measure the amount of waste removed, demonstrating the effectiveness of citizen engagement.

of volunteers (friends, family, community members) and set a date.
provide bags, gloves, grabbers, and scales to weigh the waste.
systematically collect plastic waste (and other debris) and sort it on site.
record the types and quantities of plastic collected, and take before-and-after photos.
post on social media, inform local media, and encourage other groups to replicate the action.
Take part in the Plastic Odyssey France Tour 2026! As a local volunteer, you help organize the vessel’s stopovers in your region: talks, workshops, and public events. You become an ambassador for the expedition among local stakeholders (elected officials, schools, associations). Your commitment translates directly into a successful stopover: better known to the public, driven by concrete actions, and rich in meaningful encounters. It is an opportunity to build lasting collective momentum in your community.

logistical support, booth facilitation, preparation of workshops or roundtable discussions.
through social media outreach, posters, and local press contacts.
on the day: guide visitors, explain the program, and facilitate activities.
and suggest ideas for the next stopover.
Organize the arrival of the Plastic Odyssey traveling exhibition in your city. By hosting this eco-designed exhibition in your city (museum, cultural center, campus, festival), you offer a meaningful and human experience to those around you: traveling in the footsteps of our stopovers around the world, experiencing daily life on board a vessel striving to reduce its waste, and discovering the solutions, stories, and tools we bring back from all corners of the globe.
