GreenErasmus Clothes Swap
Swapping instead of Shopping
Clothes Swap is another "Exchange for a green future" initiated by GreenErasmus-RheinAhrCampus.
New Erasmus students from all over the world come to RheinAhrCampus and have to deal with a very unexpactable German weather. Especially, students from warmer countries like India and Brazil are challenged with the German winter. To support our international friends, GreenErasmus-RheinAhrCampus decided to organize on a annual basis a sustainable event called "Clothes Swap". This way, new international students can:
- avoid extra luggage while flying to Germany
- avoid unnecessary shopping and save money
- practice second-hand shopping and develop new sustainable habits
- reduce personal and Erasmus Program's carbon foortprint
- make a difference for a greener future
By the end of every semester, GreenErasmus-RheinAhrCampus organizes another event called "Clothes Drop-Off" where every student who leaves Germany can contribute something back by donating clothes for the next generation of Erasmus students.
