This lecture tells the story of Francis and Antoine, who started a project called Carton Plein to recycle cardboard and create job opportunities for homeless individuals. The project evolved to include activities like bike deliveries and urban agriculture, emphasizing the importance of providing employment opportunities without prerequisites and the positive impact of social and environmental initiatives. The lecture highlights the challenges faced, the importance of community partnerships, and the resilience needed to sustain such projects.
