Circle Back - First Event: Visit to NochMall

DESCRIPTION
For our first gathering, we'll meet at NochMall, Berlin's first second-hand department store, run by the city's waste management company (BSR). Here, furniture, clothes, books, and household items that would otherwise be thrown away are collected, sorted, and given a second life. We'll explore the store together and see the circular economy in action.
FOR WHOM?
- Anyone curious about sustainability and the circular economy
- People who want to move from ideas to practical action
- Newcomers and experienced voices alike, no expertise needed
- Anyone looking to meet like-minded people in Berlin
WHY?
Sustainability becomes real when we see it and take part in it. NochMall is a living example of how reuse, repair, and collaboration between the city, citizens, and local businesses can keep resources in use and out of the waste stream. It's the perfect place to get inspired and start our conversatorio with something concrete.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- 3:00 p.m. – Meet at the NochMall entrance
- Explore the store together and chat about what we discover
- Afterwards – Coffee nearby to share ideas on how we can bring more people and communities into circular economy initiatives
WHAT TO BRING

Whatever your background or experience, if sustainability matters to you, you're welcome to find your common ground with us.
