The Hoy-Voy driving school defines itself as the first flexible, dynamic, and innovative driving school. Road safety experts already have 39 driving schools spread across the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands.
On this occasion, they asked us to conduct a Zero Waste workshop for their employees.

What was done?
In this workshop , we delve into the Zero Waste movement with Magda Cebrián, one of the founders of the Go Zero Waste App.
We asked the following questions about how we consume and how we can improve:
- Why recycling is no longer enough
- The power of needing less
- Thinking in circles: What does the Circular Economy teach us?
- How to change our needs and scale of priorities?
- What actions can we take from consumption to improve the Planet?
- Buy like your grandmother: in bulk, reusable and solid
Through the responses and suggestions we made, participants took home a clear understanding of what the circular economy is and how we can move toward zero waste with small actions in our daily lives.

Why a zero-waste workshop?
Information is power. It is through our conscious decisions that we influence the world through consumption . Therefore, knowing the daily actions that have the greatest impact on the planet and society empowers us as individuals and as a collective.
We designed this workshop to review some of the most important aspects of Zero Waste and responsible consumption in an engaging, participatory, and practical way.
