    Sobre o programa

    The Circular Economy program gives you the chance to make a real difference for both people and the planet, while experiencing Lisbon in a unique and meaningful way. This project brings together several local NGOs and as a volunteer, you’ll help turn materials and food that might otherwise go to waste into something valuable, transforming single-use plastics into skateboards and paddles that connect sports with the community, upcycling fabrics into bags, clothes, and cushions, giving a second life to trash gathered from beaches and the ocean by turning it into practical, sustainable items and preparing essential supplies for vulnerable populations. You’ll also be part of initiatives that give clothes and other items, such as furniture, a second life, supporting underprivileged communities and promoting sustainability across the city.


    What to expect:

    • Make a Real Impact – Help protect the environment while directly supporting vulnerable communities in Lisbon.

    • Turn Waste into Purpose – Transform plastics into skateboards and paddles, upcycle fabrics into bags and clothing, and give ocean and beach waste a practical second life.

    • Support Those in Need – Prepare essential supplies and help redistribute clothes, furniture, and other items to underprivileged communities.

    • Experience Lisbon Differently – Connect with local NGOs, communities, and creative initiatives in a hands-on, meaningful way.

    • Be Part of the Circular Movement – Actively contribute to a more sustainable, resourceful, and socially inclusive city.


    Daily Tasks:

    • Separating and shredding plastic
    • Collecting and sorting recyclable materials
    • Creating new products from upcycled materials
    • Packaging and distributing donated goods
    • Learning how to craft new pieces from recycled resources
    • Sorting donated items
