Do you ever worry about the amount of trash you create? Want to share your used toys and clothes but don't have a place to take them? Diane Cohen has created a huge system of reuse and repair across her city, including deconstructing and repurposing building materials and repairing electronic goods. This may help to reduce the waste going to landfill but she tells us it is actually all about community and relationships. Find out more in our interview with Diane for the latest podcast in our Engineering, Social Justice and Peace network series (esjp.org).

Welcome to our ESJP podcast series! In this first episode, host Saskia van Beers invites her co-host Caroline Baillie, and two other ESJP founders, Chris Byrne and Katy Haralampides to share the story of how ESJP began and what it means to them.

ESJP was formed in 2004 and is a network of practitioners, community members, and academics dedicated to Social Justice and Peace in relation to the profession of engineering and engineering education. You can find out more about ESJP at https://esjp.org/
