♻️ From plastic bags to something useful!
As part of the Ecoprise project, our first study visit took us to Precious Plastic Cyprus where participants had the chance to see circular economy in action, not just as an idea, but as a hands-on experience.
The visit was delivered in a hybrid format, with participants joining both on-site and online. And yes, even the online participants took part in the practical workshop from home!
Using simple everyday materials, participants transformed single-use plastic bags into a durable handmade bags/wallets, discovering how waste can become a resource through creativity, practical skills and a sustainable mindset.
The activity showed in a very simple and powerful way what ECOPRISE is all about: encouraging people to look at environmental challenges differently and explore how small ideas can grow into sustainable, circular and socially responsible initiatives.
A warm thank you to Precious Plastic Cyprus for hosting us and for inspiring our participants with such a practical and creative example of circular economy in practice.
Small actions. Creative ideas. Sustainable impact. 🌱
