Mens & Samenleving
A global citizen is someone who recognizes their place within a broader world. They understand that social, environmental, and economic decisions made in one part of the world impact others elsewhere. This perspective emphasizes shared humanity and equality, encouraging openness to other cultures and identities. It involves challenging stereotypes, promoting fair resource use, and supporting sustainable development.Our guest speaker, Anne Pleun van Eijsden, is the founder of 'Paper on the Rocks,' a company rethinking the paper industry, one of the most polluting sectors. Since 2015, Anne has pioneered tree-free, resource-friendly paper alternatives, striving to reshape the industry with eco-conscious solutions. Her motto is, "We have to scale those at the speed of light to create a diverse and future-proof paper industry!" Anne is also a writer and storyteller, now returning to her craft after a stroke in 2022.
