The student association Juste 2.0°C is organizing an event in Grenoble on October 5, 2026, to prepare the food for a 6-month scientific expedition to Antarctica.

As part of the Eclats de Science event, the student association Juste 2.0°C is offering an interactive workshop focused on nutrition in extreme environments. This event will take place in Grenoble on October 5, 2026, just 15 days before the expedition's departure.
Participants will engage in a planning game to organize provisions for the 6-month mission. The goal is to explore the possibilities of a vegetarian and gluten-free diet aboard the vessel heading to the South Sandwich Islands, a sub-Antarctic region.
This initiative aligns with sustainable development and scientific culture, aiming to raise public awareness about the logistical and nutritional challenges of exploration in extreme conditions.
