Last Wednesday, we had the opportunity to attend "Making our way into authentic sustainability work," a workshop organized by cirka cph at Demokrati Garage. This event brought together a passionate group eager to dive deeper into what genuine sustainability really means. 🌍✨ In the parallel sessions, we explored a set of key questions, each structured to dive deep into authentic sustainability. We started by sharing where we find inspiration, exchanging ideas that fuel our passion for the environment. 🌱💡 Then, we got personal, discussing how we relate to the ongoing environmental crises and how we stay motivated despite the challenges.💪 Next, we explored who was in the room and the ideas we could create together, sparking some exciting possibilities for collaboration. 🤝Finally, we reflected on what we’ve achieved at cirka so far and brainstormed ways to step up our sustainability efforts. 🚀🔍 After these deep discussions, we came together for a common reflection session, sharing our ideas and identifying new opportunities to work together. The day ended with an open mingling session, where we continued our conversations over drinks and snacks, and some of us enjoyed a discounted pizza at Flere Fugle next door. 🍕 A big thank you to cirka cph and Demokrati Garage for hosting such an engaging and impactful event! 🌿🌟 #sustainability #workshops #futureofsustainability #inspiringchange #greenideas
