Topics
Survival
In today’s society, survival and risk reduction are becoming increasingly crucial. Natural disasters, health risks to the public, technological disruptions, and economic crises: these circumstances have all made us realize how important it is to plan ahead and get ready.
This trend is intriguing because it makes people think critically about their capacity to survive in various contexts. The survival way of life, once limited to a community, now affects the entire population due to challenges and awareness!
Outdoor
Due to its diverse and beautiful landscapes, France provides a wide range of activities to choose from. Regardless of your preference for hiking, backpacking, camping, or trekking, we have carefully chosen a large selection of goods and services for outdoor enthusiasts. A novice or an experienced explorer: We have prepared this section just for you!
Food autonomy
A growing number of people are dreaming of fresh and local food, more autonomy, better health, and the ability to make a positive impact on the environment in a world where the food products we are offered sometimes originate from far away, come from intensive farming that is harmful to the environment, or are simply processed and bad for our health.
These days, a lot of new ideas are being developed, like aquaponics, permaculture, urban farming, and adjacent greenhouses, which enable people who use them to become more independent of companies and supply chains. Producing your own food goes beyond independence; it’s also about improving your diet and gaining the skills that are so vital in today’s world.
There are many ways to make it possible for you to grow your own food, whether you live in a home or an apartment, in the country or in the city.
Tactical and defense
Resilience is the cornerstone of the survivalist lifestyle. Our goal is to launch goods that facilitate readiness for any kind of calamity that might disrupt the continuity of society. Thus, military education starts to resemble survivalism.
It’s a movement that involves knowledge of hostile environments, the first knowledge of militaries, in addition to risk and independence. You can learn about the newest strategies, tools, and supplies at Survival Expo. In addition, there are a lot of adult and even younger training courses.
Water management
In the home, water autonomy enables us to use very high-quality water, return purified water to the environment, and be resilient in the face of failures. It is a means of replenishing both our environment and the cycle of this invaluable resource.
In addition to giving itself total or partial autonomy and a high degree of resilience, it is possible to aid in its regeneration by effectively managing its water consumption through the habitat.
The goal is to harmoniously reintegrate both as a species and as an individual into the natural water cycle. Numerous solutions will be put forth to you, whether they are for gathering water, filtering it for use or consumption, or distributing gray and black drinking water.
Energy
You need to be able to generate your own electricity in order to be independent of the electrical grid. Installing a renewable energy system, like a wind, photovoltaic, or even hydraulic one, is frequently necessary for this. One can select one of these technologies or combine them, depending on the area and the resources at hand.
Hydraulic turbines are preferred when there is a nearby water source, solar turbines in sunny regions, and wind turbines in windy areas. Combining multiple renewable energy sources to produce electricity is intriguing because these are sporadic energies that don’t always operate simultaneously, particularly solar and wind power.
Attending the Vivre Autonome show will give you the chance to network with actual industry experts who will be happy to give you system demonstrations and project advice.
Hunting and fishing
Finding food is a skill that is necessary for survival. Food is present everywhere, whether you’re in a forest or a marine environment—you just need to know where to look. Meat and fish are good sources of vitamins and minerals. Professionals in hunting and fishing will be present at Survival Expo, offering you advice and high-quality gear to help you on your journey.
Health and safety
It is critical to have the tools and the ability to respond quickly in order to handle any potentially dangerous situation. The visitors will gain a better understanding of this section, which forms the foundation of risk prevention, by watching demonstrations regarding first aid training and learning about our product selection.
