G-Addiction, an association created ten years ago and supported by the Alpes-Maritimes department, tours middle schools to raise awareness about societal issues, road safety, climate change, gender equality, and more.
Among its awareness activities, the association, for example, visits middle schools with a two-wheeler simulator to warn young people about the risks associated with speed, alcohol, or using a phone while driving.
In the road safety category, G-addiction also organizes road safety escape games, for which it received the “innovation award” in 2019. The concept: transform classrooms into a police station, nightclub, student room, or even public road, a fun way to warn about the risks and dangers related to driving.

The association also organizes escape games on biodiversity and climate change. Here, the main objectives are to make young people aware of environmental respect, promote eco-friendly actions, and help them understand the main issues of global warming.

G-Addiction also visits middle schools in the department to provide information on drug prevention or conduct fun activities aimed at promoting gender equality.
In Nice, the Daudet, Roland Garros, Jules Romains, and Don Bosco middle schools have hosted this association and the activities it offers.
