JooSoap Ambassador

JooSoap Ambassadors

The world is huge, and people speak different languages. We know it would be more effective if more people are taking actions locally. Therefore, we have this idea to invite people around the world whom have been working on making this type of Eco-Soap or is enthusiastic to spread JooSoap idea forward to join as "JooSoap Ambassador". We hope through this program to encourage people in different cities and countries to network together and share local implementation insights.

"I am an enthusiast researcher with the obsession for recycling, permaculture, renewable energy and of course, eco soap-making. I love the idea of used oil for soap making as a way to reduce waste and environment damaging. I proudly enrolled as the first JooSoap Ambassador in South America. My project for my year-long trip is to visit and stay in ecocommunities / ecovillages around South America, involve myself in a sustainable life in harmony with nature, and teach how to recycle used oils/fats to make eco soaps. To the adventure .....!!!!"
