Dow
Paving the way to a sustainable tomorrow
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Challenge has begun!
We at Dow Terneuzen (NL) officially kicked off our exciting challenge titled “How to create value from vehicles’ recycling?” with a virtual meeting.
About SDGs Challenge
The SDGs Challenge is an initiative designed to inspire and support students in taking action to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It encourages young people to engage with their communities through voluntary activities, addressing global challenges such as poverty, inequality, climate change, and more.
This challenge brings together six talented students from four universities in the Netherlands at Dow. With backgrounds in engineering, physics, and sustainable energy technology, these students will work in a diverse team, guided step-by-step by expert coaches!
The team will focus on identifying ways to recycle and reuse plastic, taking a crucial step towards achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 and reducing plastic waste.
Our in-house day
On October 9th, Team Dow warmly welcomed the selected students, opening the doors of the Diamond Center in Terneuzen. During this meeting, the project was introduced, and we provided insights into our collaboration with Jaguar. This fantastic moment of sharing allowed us to answer questions and curiosities about the challenge and offer guidance on the next steps. It was an exhilarating opportunity to discuss possible solutions and highlight the unique talents of each team member!
