Ekothon is meant for everyone! We particularly encourage people interested in sustainable development and working across disciplines and sectors in society. Maybe you have some of the skills/experience needed by the projects (see project descriptions), or maybe you are an innovative and imaginative person who would simply like to get involved. We would love municipal planners, politicians, artists, academics, entrepreneurs, activists and local business representatives to get involved!
Join us and be part of ecological transition of Pirkanmaa region! Choose the most interesting challenge and sing up for a series of meetings with people as motivated as you to be the change they want to be:
– > Karkku library as a community centre
– > Pirkanmaas co-operative cultural centres
– > Pirkanmaas Doughnut coalition
– > Korento Nature School and innovations in nature education
– > Tampere University researchers collaborating at the grassroots
– > Pirkanmaan Kaarikoirat Ry and community in skateboarding
