We inspire the Changemakers of tomorrow in their creative and social entrepreneurship.
The Young Changemakers platform organizes unique, creative and interactive workshops for children from 6 to 14 years old. Our activities are always focused on sustainability and creative reuse of materials and take place in our studio at Schipholpoort 100 in Haarlem.
We teach children to upcycle raw materials, apply cultural techniques and develop skills such as repairing, reusing, reducing and recycling.
Today’s youth have the power to make a lasting and positive impact on the future. The Young Changemakers offers the tools to make a difference.
Creative and social entrepreneur Helina brings more then 10 years of expertise from (inter)national design projects. She passionately shares her knowledge about desgin thinking and encourages young people to discover their creative potential.
