One Amazing Thing I've Done
After my bachelor I participated in the “Stichting Herontwikkeling tot Studentenhuisvesting” board. At which we designed and rebuild an old nursing home into a mixed living complex. Where students, elderly and former homeless people share an big communal garden and inside space. We set up a committee to manage this garden and space inside the building by organizing events and workshops for the residents but also for people from the neighbourhood.
