The announcement, by Emmanuel Macron, Friday, June 3, of the creation of the National Refoundation Council associating the political, economic, social, associative forces and citizens drawn is, on the whole, well greeted by Civil society actors. But without overflowing enthusiasm. The great debates, the Grenelle and Segur of the previous five -year term have left an unfinished taste and have exhausted the good wills a little.

Friday, in his interview with the regional daily press, the head of state estimated that the French were “tired of the reforms coming from above” and undertook to put around the table, after The legislative elections, many actors to reflect on the “five” objectives of the new five-year term: “Independence (industrial, military, food …), full employment, carbon neutrality, public services for equal opportunities and the democratic rebirth with institutional reform “.

Associations to combat poverty say they are leaving. “After having, during the first five -year term, spanned the intermediate bodies, the President of the Republic had to change his method and that is what he seems to do,” said Christophe Robert, general delegate of the Abbé Pierre Foundation and Porte -Proole of 98 associations, unions and mutuals grouped in the Pact of the power to live. “The day after his re-election, we had written in this sense to the Head of State and we take this announcement as his answer,” he continues. “But we must, from the first days, agree on the objectives , reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the fight against poverty and energy precariousness and the production of social housing, very abused for five years … Once agree on an action plan, we must Evaluate and adjust them in the long term. “

” A good approach “

For Pascal Brice, president of the Federation of Solidarity Actors (700 associations), “it was time to change your method and it is a good approach”, but it also warns: “it must anchor in The territories, as the Head of State suggests, and trust the actors, starting with social workers, volunteers and beneficiaries of these actions, by giving them “power to act”. “

The reaction of the elected officials of suburban, by the voice of Thierry Falconnet, socialist mayor of Chenôve (Côte-d’Or) and president of the association of mayors city and suburbs, is, she, circumspect: “Is it An announcement effect a few days of first round of the legislative elections ?, He wonders. What will be the role of this advice, its perimeter of reflection and action, its functioning and its real objectives? If we are well in the production of solutions, then our association of elected officials will be part of a co -construction process with the government. “
