makers unite
We believe with every small change we make we can make the world a nicer and better place.
That’s why we love Makers Unite. Makers Unite connects EU locals and refugees to co-design products upcycling waste material collected on Greek shores creating new business opportunities and funding aid projects.
Ethical, functional and funky design
Our favourite collection is the ‘Life-Vest Collection’. These products are created out of life-vests used during mirgrant travel. The collection s hand-made by newcomers with refugee backgrounds in Amsterdam. Our favourites are the laptop sleeve, travel pouch and iPad case. These are great for keeping your goodie safe while traveling!
