Do you want to contribute to a cleaner Leuven? Curious about how you can make new, innovative products from plastic waste? Would you like to learn how to turn an idea into a prototype and are you between 16 and 25 years old?

Between the beginning of March and the end of April 2022, you can participate in LE(J)ON’s Upcycling River challenge in the High Tech Lab. During this challenge, you will work as a team with plastic waste that you yourself remove from the Dijle and the Vaart to make into a new sports attribute for Leuven sports associations. You decide what to make and will receive support from the technical experts of the High Tech Lab during the process!

The sessions take place in the evening on:

• March 1st
• March 8th
• March 14th
• March 22nd
• March 29th
• April 19th
• April 20th
