Youth and cultural centers forced to evolve their model

Thomas Jury, director of the youth and culture center in Nogent-sur-Marne, expresses concerns about potential land sales to developers due to rising property prices. He emphasizes the importance of their historical site and collaborative efforts with local institutions to raise awareness and defend their space. The center faces challenges from reduced state funding, pushing them to seek alternative financial support from foundations and sponsors, as local subsidies typically cover about half of their budget.
