Ecodesign Award for Students 2022

This year, the Flemish Agency for Waste Treatment (OVAM), Circular Flanders and Design Museum Gent present the Ecodesign Award for students in BROEI – doing and thinking space for the new generation. The young talent behind these designs took up the challenge to help change the world with their graduation project or thesis. They designed a circular, sustainable or eco-friendly product or service belonging to one of the following two categories.

The category ‘Problem Solving’ includes designers who offer solutions to current ecological, economic or social challenges our society faces. The designs in this category are primarily aimed at a systemic approach. The category ‘Everyday Life’ includes projects that contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle. These products or services provide an alternative with a smaller impact on our planet.

The winners literally have gold in their hands with the award: a sustainable smartphone with a contact network every designer dreams of - numbers of renowned product designers, sustainable entrepreneurs, investors, policy makers, etc.
