The 2nd Family: Embracing the Circular Economy
The 2nd family which participated in the workshops, become pioneers of the circular economy. By repairing, repurposing, and sharing resources within their neighbors, they’ve shifted from a linear “take- make-dispose” mindset to a circular one. They encouraged their neighbors to exchange items they no longer need. By facilitating this exchange, this family minimized unnecessary consumption and waste, emphasizing the value of reusing and repurposing goods within the community. Their creative approach in reimagining the lifespan of products has sparked enthusiasm among neighbors and friends, fostering a culture of sustainability.
