From Waste to Wonder

By Samantha Bendoff at CIEE

A group of students from the CIEE Dublin Social Justice Program visited the Rediscovery Centre, where they explored the practical applications of the circular economy. Guided by Jackie, they toured various exhibits demonstrating innovative reuse of materials, such as eco-friendly furniture, sustainable fashion, and green building techniques. The tour highlighted the Centre's mission to transform waste into valuable resources and foster sustainability through education, community initiatives, and research. This experience encouraged students to adopt sustainable practices and consider their impact on the planet.
