POC21 is an international innovation community, that started as an innovation camp. The camp brought together more than 100 makers, designers, engineers scientists and geeks. Late summer 2015, we have joined forces in a stunning french castle to prototype the fossil free, zero waste society. Our ultimate goal was to overcome the destructive consumer culture and make open-source, and sustainable products the new standard. Over the course of 5 weeks we developed 12 sustainable lifestyle technologies and built an international community of innovators and supporters, that continues to grow.
In the dynamic of “Proof of Concept”, will follow a presentation of a collaborative project happening in Auroville “Joy Of Impermanence”; involving 3 entities: Youth Link, Collectif BAM and Low Tech Lab.
