Fais-le toi-même

Fais-le toi-même (FLTM - Do it yourself in French) is firstly an ASBL wishing to create bridges between projects and struggles, putting back the “living”, the commons and what we are thriving for at the heart of things to better make things evolve. Created in 2016, FLTM has the conviction that artisans, as well as creative and sustainable entrepreneurs are key actors; that they are guarantor of the imaginary, the innovation and the change; that they have a true societal role to play. 

FLTM is also a place (and hopefully more to come), l’Extension, a collaborative and creative “third place” at the heart of Saint-Gilles which is hosting artisans, sustainable entrepreneurs’ studio and associations’ offices. It’s an ecosystem anchored in its neighbourhood where collaborative and creative work allow the creation of new imaginaries.

Last but not least, FLTM is an incubator program aimed specifically towards artisans and creative and sustainable entrepreneurs, the BOOST. We structured this program with the support of Actiris and the European Social Fund. Every year, we will be supporting 50 persons, artisans and creative & sustainable entrepreneurs within two sessions (one in April and one in September): 2 to 3 months with weekly workshops led by coaches whose expertise in the creative & sustainable entrepreneurship field is not to be demonstrated and 6 months of follow up with collective moments, access to our coworking space and meet-up with coaches.
