For WALC Confluence 14 – Eléonore Ozanne writes:
*For the third time, we will be walking together, women, following the full moon, from one end of the world to the other… Last year, on 6 October 2025, we drifted in the same direction on a walk that, thanks to the time zones, lasted around 24 hours. The emotions ran deep, and I received so many moving testimonies that I needed time to let them take the shape of a collective story.
It is this story that I want to share with you. A story of the unknown. A story of a simple adventure, of joy, and of questioning. A story both plural and singular, in which all of us, each from our own singularity, voice and way of seeing the world, walk toward the same direction: the moon.
A story that, I hope, will make you want to dream and to explore the night with us on 26 September 2026!
*This project does not seek to reinforce a binary view of gender. We understand “woman” as anyone whose body, story or experience resonates with this proposal.”
