3D-ECO course equip local Berliners with skills for the present and future.Our comprehensive course is designed to teach fundamental skills in 3D design and 3D printing, coupled with an exploration of recycling materials and upcycling.
3D Printing
Sustainability
Upcycling
Our mission is the environmental and technological empowerment of the local youth community in Berlin, with a dedicated effort to support the integration of Ukrainian refugees.
3D-ECO offers a creative dive into the world of 3D printing, guiding you through the process of designing and creating your own 3D models.
We engage participants in a hands-on exploration of the plastic recycling process, not only instructing them on repurposing waste materials but also raising awareness about the challenges in recycling.
Moreover, our course introduces you to the concept of upcycling, teaching you how to repurpose waste materials and old clothes into valuable products.
By the end of the course, participants will show their gained skills by combining own 3D printed objects with upcycled clothing to create and campaign their own slogans for freedom, mutual respect, democracy, environment or other important messages.
Course structure and schedule:Our course is a blend of interactive and modern training sessions, designed for engagement and learning fun. The course unfolds over a month, with a weekly focus on a distinct sustainable practice.
● 3D printing, recycling, upcycling offline in Berlin.● Live online sessions for 3D modeling.● Self-paced learning with comprehensive resources
Additional MotivationParticipants staying with us until the end, receive certificate, bonus programs and can be part of our upcoming fashion show in Berlin.
This project is funded by the European Union through Erasmus+.
