“Imagine what could happen if we reconnect with the areas we live in and solve problems locally.

TEDxYouth@Nijmegen

On the 18th of January I was one of the speakers at TEDxYouth@Nijmegen. I spoke about reconnecting with the areas we call home in order to solve global issues.

This mini-website is all about my talk!

How we can change environmental planning

Use the Environment and Planning act

Also known as the Omgevingswet here in the Netherlands. It will change the way we do everything regarding environmental planning.

Move to a value driven system

Right now everything revolves about either money or power. If we are able to see that other values, such as environmental, social and cultural values, might be equally important, we can start operating in a different way.

Organising manoeuvrability

If we un-scare ourselves of failure and accept mistakes as a chance to manoeuvre ourselves into a new attempt, we will be able to speed up innovation and change.
