A local and global community of changemakers that aim to create a sustainable world with lasting peace.
To create social impact inspired by UN SDGs.
To create a Think-Tank that will address sustainable solutions.
To create a platform where local community can work on sustainable projects.
To bridge gaps of different stakeholders in local community - to bring together youth, active citizens, policy makers, entrepreneurs, industry leaders and encourage them to work together.
To build a world-wide network of communities of social innovators and changemakers.
To bring the knowledge and awareness of UN SDGs and Agenda 2030 to our local environment.
We have cooperated with the local library and high school on a project that encouraged the youth to work on addressing on of the SDGs hand on - so high shoolers created projects with local NGOs and actively participated in helping those less fortunate in our local environment.
We have hosted a workshop with high schoolers that included making items, furniture, art from recycled materials, which are now a part of our coworking space.
All events we hoste and organise we use as a platform to present the Agenda 2030 and 17 SDGs and are very actively also promoting in our local environment.
Lectures and workshops
Supporting and encouraging social entrepreneurship
Online platform of members, stakeholders and active citizens
Handbook on sustainable development practices
Educational summits, symposiums, industry conferences
Zavod 2030 is our answer to work closely with people, starting locally and use our own city of Celje as a habitat where people and businesses meet to envision and work toward a desired future together. Our ambition is to co-create a local and global community of changemakers through programs and activities that aim to create a sustainable world with lasting peace. We believe in the values of wisdom, self-initiative, innovation, creativeness, lifelong learning and sharing.
As stated above, we expose aprox. 200 ppl monthly to Agenda 2030 and 17 SDGs. This is quite a large number for our environment.
We found, most people are still unaware of the issues and challenges facing the world.
Zavod 2030 is an openly shared model of hosted thematic space that encourages innovative solutions for modern day challenges and is a platform for transforming youth into active and responsible citizens.
We believe joining AFL Network is a nother opportunity to spread values that will help create a sustainable and peaceful world. We want to start in our local environment, but also connect local citiens with the world, to provide a wider outlook and stronger positive connections between people(s) of the world.
We all need to feel more connect on a personal level, digital ways are not enough - we wish to promote people to people contact and real relationship building practices.
