Sustainably and creatively processed recyclable materials

Emperor Maximilian Prize winner 2023: upcycling project from Portugal

“Young-European-United” was the theme of this year’s Emperor Maximilian competition. Award winner José Rodrigues presented his “Green Steps” project. “The Emperor Maximilian Prize brings initiatives to the fore that promote the European idea and bring us closer together. A sincere thanks goes to all those who are committed to our united Europe with enthusiasm, creativity and dedication. Emperor Maximilian I left his mark on Tyrol and Europe and so the prize named after him is a mission to further develop our homeland – and homeland means within and beyond Tyrol’s borders,” explained Anton Mattle, Governor of Tyrol.

Creative ideas

“Green Steps” comes from Portugal and draws attention to the environmental pollution caused by packaging materials. José Rodrigues and his team from “Teatro Metaphora” in Madeira advocate for a more conscious use of recyclable materials and are committed to sustainability in a creative way. “A strong, united Europe needs people who creatively put their ideas into practice despite sudden obstacles. The winning project gives us hope,” explains Georg Willi, Mayor of Innsbruck.
