Description

"SHARE VIENNA is a research project within the framework of sustainable consumption and production. The project focuses on collaborative consumption, i.e. an approach to consumption that emerged from the shifts brought by globalization and technological developments, which places access over ownership and brings us “back” to bartering, trading, swapping and sharing in a modern re-defined form.

collaborative consumption1Collaborative consumption, named by TIME one of the “10 Ideas That Will Change the World” shows how new technologies enable building trust between strangers, reinventing not just WHAT we consume but HOW we consume. Importantly, it is not anti-business, anti-product or anti-consumer – it is simply a new approach to consumption based on sustainable behavior." (http://www.rce-vienna.at/activities/share-vienna2/)
