How can we all contribute?

 

In this lecture, we take a closer look at specific and simple actions each one of us can take to contribute to the cause of climate.

Frida wants to raise awareness- and highlight important issues such as social sustainability, focusing on working conditions in the garment industry, micro plastics, the meat industry and cultivation of foods.

 

The purpose is to create positive attitudes about the topics and to inspire to new perspectives and act accordingly, and to create engagement on a personal level.

How can we make a positive change?

 

This is a lecture on following our dreams, finding our place in society as a young entrepreneur, creating something that adds value to society and the world. Frida clarifies how we can all create positive ripple effects.

Feedback

"It is clear that Frida Ottesen is passionate about spreading the message of consumer responsibility when it comes to safeguarding human rights in the production of clothes. Using illustrative photos and accomplished speaking skills, she engaged us at HSN to contribute to fair trade."

"Frida has an incredibly beautiful and vibrant storytelling style and a great commitment to an important cause.

She communicated this in a brilliant way, and kept the attention of 120 nineteen-year-olds without a problem for one hour. We have already booked Frida for the next school year. "

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. In fact, they are the only ones who have ever changed it."
