  At Histoire sans chute (HSC), we believe that every material has infinite reuse potential, including textiles. Our team shares this vision by creating local systems for collecting, sorting, and reusing this valuable resource, as well as organizing events focused on repair and raising awareness about the world of textiles. The HSC arcade is a textile resource center in the heart of Geneva (the first of its kind!), serving as a second-hand haberdashery (materials for sale), a shared space (for machines and other tools), and a hub for promoting textile repair. In short, it’s a place for both material and human exchange.

  With its 105 hectares, the Neeracherried is one of the last large fens in Switzerland and is a nature reserve of national importance. It provides a valuable habitat for countless birds, plants, amphibians, reptiles, and small ani-mals – and serves as a stopover site for migratory birds, a wintering area, and a breeding ground for rare species. To ensure that we can continue to observe these fascinating animals undisturbed from our observation hides, the willow-wattle-fencing in front of the hides need to be re-newed. For this, we are looking for active support with harvesting and debranching the willows, as well as weaving the willow walls. Depending on the season, different tasks may arise.
