Education & learning
Through education programmes and workshops
We think transformative social change comes from education and learning. We believe a truly circular economy model is possible!
We want to be part of the solution and support new learning to contribute towards a resilient, thriving, and sustainable Auckland.
We promote a waste minimisation approach with those we engage with and are actively delivering our education programme and workshops to build the real and practical knowledge of how to live lightly in our homes and communities.
Through making change visible and fun we invite everyone to join us for the ride..

- Practical skill development, repair, mending, sewing, DIY

Current education programme
An engaging and inspiring education programme
We have partnered with Auckland Council’s Community Waste team to run an engaging and inspiring education programme which aims to educate diverse communities and foster community participation through workshops to contribute to Auckland Zero Waste 2040.
Its focus is on raising awareness of the importance of Zero Waste and the impact that consumer choices make on the environment.
Our endeavour is for participants to become champions of change through building their capacity to become new leaders and share their learnings with their whanau and communities.
