𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐣𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐮𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐩!As social scientists and artists, we tend to look at the world carefully and with infinite nuances. We like to take our time. But society’s challenges are large and fast-paced, and often institutions and organisations struggle to engage with our work if we don’t translate it to their reality. This bootcamp is designed to help you go from research to action through artistic expression, in a way that feels comfortable to you, but also allows others to connect with your insights & art and use these results in solving a sustainability challenge.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞
Our partner, Sector 6 City Hall, is putting forward a massive change in waste management by introducing a separate waste collection system. Over 800 recycling stations are being installed in Sector 6 of Bucharest by the end of 2024.
In this context, the question we will work on is: what solutions can we find to inspire strategies and public policies through which the local administration can encourage the residents of Sector 6 to adopt and correctly use the separate waste collection infrastructure?
