“Even if you’re insecure and you don’t have the guts to do something, close your eyes, take a step forward and trust that everything will work out.” Bringing people together has been the common theme in my life. I have a dream to connect people, but also a dream to show that it is definitely possible to make a change in society. THUIS is the place where this dream comes true. It’s a community of do-ers, of people who believe in a more positive, more fair, more sustainable and more social world and who want to make an impact on Wageningen and the world around us. We believe that every action, however small it may be, has an impact on our surroundings and that big changes start with small actions. THUIS is for everyone, we all live together in Wageningen, 38.000 people. Some people have only lived here for 3 months and others their entire lives, but right now we are all here and together we have to make sure that everyone feels THUIS. (Tutku Yuksel, former BSc student and cofounder of THUIS Wageningen)
