Satirical 'Pics d'Or' Ceremony Critiques Anti-Homeless Measures in France

The Fondation Abbé Pierre uses humor to spotlight the increasing number of anti-homeless installations across France.

The 'Pics d'Or' awards, organized by the Fondation Abbé Pierre, highlight the most egregious anti-homeless measures in France.
This year's public choice award went to a Lyon installation featuring large empty flower pots designed to deter homeless individuals.
The ceremony aims to raise awareness about the growing number of anti-homeless devices, which have become more prevalent over the past decade.
Humor and satire are used to criticize the absurdity of shifting the homelessness issue rather than addressing it directly.
The Fondation Abbé Pierre has mapped numerous anti-homeless installations across France, encouraging public contributions to identify and report them.
