In a vibrant celebration of sustainability and creativity, NIC hosted two workshops on zero-waste cosmetics as part of the EXIT SeaStar Festival 2024 in Umag, Croatia, on May 24 and 25. These workshops showcased REMEDIES’ innovation in preventing single-use plastic packaging pollution through citizens’ handmade DIY seaweed coating alternatives. This initiative aimed to educate and inspire the general public about the benefits and practices of a zero-waste, plastic-free lifestyle. Organized by REMEDIES partners NIC and EXIT, the workshops drew a remarkable turnout, with over 40 enthusiastic participants engaging in hands-on activities to create colorful zero-waste seaweed coatings for their shampoos. Moreover, more than 2,000 shampoo balls were made and handed out to the visitors of the SeaStar event.
