Meer Koet, Minder Afval is a collaborative project between humans and their more-than-human environment. Informed by art and design methodologies, it is grounded in everyday life. Through the project, we ask how we can meaningfully collaborate with the waterbirds that share our urban environments. How can their needs and our needs align, and how can we make things a little better, day by day?

If you would like to support our team, learn more about what we are working on, or check in on how the waterbirds in Ghent are doing, feel free to get in touch with us.
