We are a group of young, ambitious people from business and non-profit realities across Switzerland. We combine our skills to drive our mission forward.
- Our core competence is enabling people to act for sustainability, so they “learn by doing” in a positive context. We show people how a simple life can be fun, we inspire and provide them with an experience that provides a basis for further actions and choices.
We are experienced in finding the right tone and means to communicate around the theme and to enthuse people to act, and co-create, which sometimes means not using the word “sustainability” at all. - We are a small team of young, experienced professionals with backgrounds in business, communications and projects. We worked in various ways on sustainability, and all try to live better with less.
- We bring a wide range of skills to make sure we achieve concrete results.
