LSDP presents 'Desycle' at ISWA-2007 congress.

September/07
LSDP was invited by the ISWA (international solid waste association) to present the concept the "Descyle' concept and related projects. This was a great opportunity to learn more about how the garbage industry works in many countries. About the different priorities, the management of possibilities and impossibilities. To present ‘Desycle’ in a forum like this was full of challenges at many levels. By the end of our presentation we had many positive reactions about the strategy, the products, and also big ??? marks, which is always good. It makes us dive even more into our objectives and more result driven.
We learned about many other interesting projects, for more information and to download the presentations http://www.nvrd.nl/nvrd/proceedings/proceedings.asp this would be the link.
The Gala night was good! We made gala dresses with accessories made of desycled packaging materials, which attracted people’s attention. We used this opportunity to make our point ‘The added value of design to waste and the waste industry. We had a chance to meet all garbage professionals in a more relaxed atmosphere and the dancing was also good!!
In conclusion. Garbage is a boring subject, and it keeps on being presented in a boring way, our mission: make it interesting, inspiring and FUN so we all take ownership of this situation and grow towards a more proactive behavior.
