The Urban Nanna specialises in teaching people about traditional skills, crafts and methods of living set in a modern-day world. As well as reviving traditional ways of cooking, preserving, and crafting, we focus heavily on permaculture and living a more sustainable lifestyle by gardening and adopting zero-waste principles in everyday life.

Through TV, radio, articles, workshops and print media avenues, she shares traditional knowledge, methods and skills with people around the world much like grandmas used to do with their children and grandchildren."

#PublicLibrariesVictoria #Australia - #LibraryOfThings

"The library extends beyond books and embraces a vast array of useful items. This initiative is unique to each library, providing the community to borrow a diverse range of objects. Transforming the library into a hub of shared resources.

From tools and electronics to kitchen appliances and party supplies to children’s toys and hiking equipment. The concept expands access to items that might otherwise be unaffordable or underutilized. By borrowing rather than buying patrons not only save money but also promote sustainable consumption and reduce waste. Providing an opportunity for skill building, or to experiment with a new hobby. All the Library of Things across Victoria exemplify the collaborative spirit of the community offering the shared pool of resources.

Please get in contact with your closest library to discover what their Library of Things consists of.

By aligning with these SDG targets, a ‘library of things’ facilitates sustainable consumption, reduces waste, promotes community engagement and supports the development of resilient and inclusive cities. It encourages collaboration, knowledge sharing and partnerships to address the challenges of sustainable development and create more sustainable and resourceful communities.
