17th of January 15:00-17:00 Change Starts Now with Melati Wijssen – PL. 101
Inspired by her own successes and failures, full-time changemaker Melati Wijsen will take you on her journey of becoming a changemaker and the 100 lessons she learned along the way. Her book Change Starts Now shares an insight into what it was like for a 12-year-old girl growing up in the movement, and how anyone, anywhere, no matter their age, can get involved too.
Melati will be joined by SDG Nederland and other young changemakers to discuss how we can face the challenges of our time and what are the tools everyone can use to facilitate change.
Join us to learn from inspiring changemakers and connect with like-minded individuals! The programme will be in English. The event is organised by Youthtopia in collaboration with Green Office HU. More information: https://husite.nl/greenoffice/calendar_item/change-start-now-with-melati-wijssen/
