Turning Trash into Treasure with Upcycling

THE CONCEPT

This program is made possible via MDT (maatschappelijke diensttijd)—a Netherlands-based initiative to empower young people through meaningful contributions to society.

While the program is open to participants of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels, the subsidy that powers it is designed for development of people 12-30 years old.

What happens when trash meets talent, strangers become collaborators, and creativity drives a collective vision for a better world? You get Sustainable Society—a constellation of upcycled old installations and reimagined trash joining Maker Days 2025!
