Noa Buijsman

Writer

Noa is in her last year of being a student and an Industrial Ecologist in the making! With her background in design and interest in anthropology and sustainability, she has a strong need to evoke social change throughout her career. However, she also sees it as a fun challenge to make her wardrobe or diet as impactless as possible and sees strong power in the ‘ripple effect’. Through being a writer on the DS platform, she hopes to dive into new fields of sustainability or dig deeper into the ones she is already familiar with and to bring her activist touch to this blog!
