In 2023, the climate alliance member Eurométropole de Strasbourg once again participated in the Children's Miles campaign. Besides learning climate-friendly behavior, the focus was on safety in dealing with traffic, a strengthened sense of community, and the health benefits of increased physical activity.

77 children from the Alphonse Daudet school in Mittelhausbergen (near Strasbourg in France) even took part in two campaigns at the same time. In the action "A l'école à vélo" of the city of Strasbourg they are now even among the first 10 schools (out of more than 110)! And the participation at "kids for climate action" was also a great success: 412 green footprints were collected.

Their teacher reports: "We explained to the students that we were participating in two campaigns this year, so that the children who came by scooter or on foot would also be rewarded. Each child was allowed to choose a stamp in the morning and confirm their participation of the day on a list. At the end of the action week, we gave each child some decorative beads for their bike and a sticker for their helmet."
