- What experience of yours do you bring to this lab? [mind]
I’m working for the Global Ecovillage Network GEN Europe, where I am in charge of communications of a project on bioeconomy called Bloom (financed by the EU Horizon2020 program). I bring experience in community living and in working for NGOs in the areas of environmental protection and human rights. - What excites you about this lab? [heart]
My interest in circular economy comes from my passion for sustainable solutions and the questions that drive me: how can we grow into a new consciousness of our interconnectedness with the Earth and all its beings? How can we change our consumption habits in a way that they do no longer destroy and threaten life? Which tools and structures can support this paradigm shift, both on an individual and systemic level? - What do you expect to happen as a result of this lab? [will]
Through my participation in the social lab I would like to learn more on circular economy and its practical local implementation, as well as to acquire new tools and methods that will help me co-create a new future together with other change makers.
