1. Our Mission 💪

Discover how everyday choices around coffee and other hot drinks can contribute to a more sustainable future!

During the walk, we will explore:

  • Fair Trade and responsible sourcing
  • The environmental impact of coffee and cocoa production
  • Plant-based alternatives
  • Waste prevention and reusable packaging
  • Accessibility, inclusion and transparency
  • The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Our goal is not to find the perfect coffee shop, but to identify good practices, understand existing challenges and explore opportunities for improvement. Everyone is welcome!

2. Meeting Point & Timing 📍

  • Meeting point: Forum da Vinci, Luxembourg City
  • Time: 15:30–17:30

Please arrive on time so that all groups can start together.

Getting there: Take the tram to Hamilius. Forum da Vinci is approximately an 8-minute walk from there.

3. Routes & Coffee Shop Selection 🗺️

Each group will receive a suggested route featuring selected coffee shops.

You can also choose from an additional list of coffee shops known for their sustainability practices.

Please:

  • Stay with your group and agree on your route.
  • Respect the agreed timetable.
  • Inform the event team if you need to change your plans.

4. Using the Coffee Shop Checklist 📝

Use the Allez l’Éco Checklist to explore and assess each coffee shop’s sustainability practices.

Record your findings based on your own observations and the information made available by the coffee shops.

5. Respect Coffee Shops & Their Staff 🤝

Please be polite and respectful towards staff and other customers.

Avoid assumptions or unsupported judgements. Remember that the purpose is to learn, exchange ideas and identify opportunities for positive change, not to inspect or judge businesses.

6. Regrouping & Sharing Results 👥

All groups should return to Forum da Vinci by approximately 17:00.

During the closing session, we will:

  • Share interesting discoveries and good practices.
  • Discuss challenges and information gaps.
  • Exchange ideas for more sustainable everyday choices.

7. The Final Vote 🏆

All participants will have the opportunity to vote for the coffee shop that impressed them most in terms of sustainability.

Please remember:

  • Vote for a coffee shop you personally visited.
  • Base your choice on its overall sustainability practices and your findings.
  • Submit your vote using the method announced by the event team.
  • Each participant may cast one vote only.

The audience-choice winner will be announced at the end of the event!
