NIKIN x VIVA CON AGUA: BE PART OF THE MOVEMENT
"Tree by Tree meets Drop by Drop": NIKIN and Viva con Agua are working together to make a positive impact - both for nature and for people - and are teaming up for a collaboration. While NIKIN focuses on ecological aspects such as tree planting and the production of sustainable fashion, Viva con Agua focuses on social aspects and provides people with access to clean drinking water and sanitary facilities. The Impact Bracelet symbolizes this collaboration and the desire to share our values. For every bracelet sold, a tree is planted with One Tree Planted in Uganda and the One WASH Program of Viva con Agua is supported. Be a part of this positive impact and stand up for a greener world where everyone has access to water. #shareyourimpact
The Impact Bracelet
Pendant: #tide ocean material®
The #tide ocean material® is made from ocean plastic. Local volunteers collect plastic from the ocean in different places around the world and make reuse possible.
STRAP: Better on you than in the sea
Just like the pendant, the strap is made from recycled marine plastic, from OceanYarn® by Meister and made in Switzerland.
Packaging: Reuse material
We didn't cut down a single tree to make the packaging for your Impact Bracelet, because the paper is made from industrial sugar cane waste.
Logos: #shareyourimpact
Show your values by wearing the Impact Bracelet. With the NIKIN tree and the Viva con Agua logo, you stand for sustainability and social commitment.
THE PROJECTS
NIKIN and Viva con Agua share the same values, which is why both support a project in Uganda through the sale of the Impact Bracelet. For every bracelet sold, 1 tree is planted in a One Tree Planted reforestation project and 1 Swiss franc goes to the One WASH Programme supported by Viva con Agua.
NIKIN: Uganda 2021 - Palorinya Refugee Settlement
From April 2022, NIKIN will plant 149,000 trees in western Uganda with One Tree Planted and local organisations. The forests will be created in the area of the Palorinya Refugee Settlement, a refugee camp with currently about 166,000 people. Why are trees needed there? The trees will provide shade, relieve pressure on existing trees and strengthen food security. The long-term goal is also to increase the use of firewood from controlled sources and to raise awareness among the local population.
Viva con Agua: One WASH Program in Uganda
With the One WASH Programme in Uganda, Viva con Agua provides access to clean drinking water, sanitation and hygiene for communities in Karamoja and West Nile. In detail, this means: the construction and commissioning of 6 solar-powered water supply systems at schools and in the communities, 18 new wells, the training of water user committees in the respective locations and communities, and a total of 20,000 trees are being reforested to preserve natural watersheds.
CURRENT CONTRIBUTIONS
Our tree planting project in October and November: hazelnut trees for Bhutan
Intact nature, a living culture and a very unique understanding of happiness - in the middle of the Himalayas lies Bhutan, probably the most sustainable (and happiest) country in the world. This is exactly where we are supporting a new project together with One Tree Planted in October and November. The aim of the project is to reforest degraded mountain slopes, bind CO₂ and at the same time strengthen the livelihoods of small farming families.
9 years of NIKIN - 9 years of learning, growing, trying things out
2016: Two childhood friends meet for a beer - with an idea in mind. They want to sell products and give something back to nature in the process. Nine years later, this idea has become a movement. Over 2.5 million trees planted later, we ask ourselves: what has happened during this time? What moments, what learnings, what mistakes? We asked our founders Robin and Nicholas and collected their most important lessons for you.
Together for Nature: Anniversary design from the community
Sometimes it only takes a small idea to get something bigger rolling. When Janina Hess submitted her design for the NIKIN Crowd Design competition, she didn't know whether anyone would even like it. She is all the more pleased that her design "Together for Nature" is now part of an entire collection - not only because her design is immortalized on our TreeShirts, but also because the message behind it is very important. Find out which one in the blog.
The new Puffer Jacket from NIKIN - the sustainable companion for cold days
Fall is just around the corner and temperatures are dropping. What should you not be without? A jacket that keeps you warm, whatever the weather. We have developed our first puffer jacket precisely for this weather, which will keep you warm on the way to work, on a walk or outside in the mountains. out in the mountains and keeps you warm. Our TreeJacket Insulated is sustainable, fairly produced and made from recycled materials. Let us show you what else it has to offer.
