My Changemaker Tour in Northern Europe 🎙| Season 2 @mediajaag

Hi guys, it’s Julien, this is a podcast produced by JAAG (@mediajaag) about my Changemaker Tour in Northern Europe that happened in February and March 2020 (just before the lockdown). After 3 months of preparation, I took my bagpack and my interrail pass early February to go on an incredible adventure. During 5 weeks, I interviewed 21 inspiring changemakers in London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Copenhagen, Oslo and finally Stockholm. They told me about the problem they try to tackle, the reasons for their commitment, their solution in detail but also their difficulties, doubts on their paths.

    Kim Zuiver - The Repair Cafe save tons of waste

    I made a visit to the Repair Cafe De Meevaart located in the North-East part of Amsterdam. Inside, on the first three Wednesdays of the month and the last Saturday of the month, volunteers of all ages and all nationalities organize repair sessions for objects such as vacuum cleaners and maaany coffee machines. This, in order to avoid people buying them back unnecessarily and save tons of waste. I had a very interesting discussion on many different points with Kim, the leader of the place, the mother as she is called here. Martine Postma who created the very first Repair Cafe in Amsterdam in 2009, regularly visits the team, between 2 trips abroad, because her concept is present now all over the world.
