Today we are happy to celebrate Maritska Aarts’ 25th work anniversary at Brunel. Maritska is one of the founders of the Brunel Foundation. What has started as an HR internship at one of our regional offices in 1999, turned out to be a long career of a quarter of a century at Brunel. Over the years Maritska has worked in different HR roles in the Netherlands. Since 2012 she’s one of the driving forces behind the Brunel Foundation. This role suits her like a glove. She achieved great milestones, such as the organization of many autism awareness initiatives, Volvo Ocean Race kids event, #Trash ‘n Trace cleanups, #BrunelFoundationForest and most recently the inspiring #ConciousDress. Maritska has contributed in many ways to Brunel. She’s capable of connecting people with her bubbly and thoughtful personality. Besides, her intelligence, creative mind and work ethic made her flourish. Thank you Maritska, for being such an engaged Bruneller for so many years! #Bruneller #WorkAnniversary #EmployeeRecognition #BrunelFoundation #CareerMilestone #25YearsOfService

The #ConsciousDress wraps up a very exciting upcycle month by diving into the #AI world of #Prunella vulgaris, better known as the #Brunel flower. This flower is hardy and adaptable, thriving in various conditions. This ‘Brunel DNA’ is exactly what our specially formed team has shown. They dared to put themselves to the test and invested their effort into unknown territory. After all, unlocking talent isn’t just about individual skills: it’s about creating collaborations in which people thrive together. By connecting their abilities, we unlocked a wealth of creativity to bring the ConsciousDress to life. Thank you Amanda Linger, Jorik Jol, Paul Haller, Marc Watson, Venetia Fong, Femke de Klerk-Evers, Marloes Kemps, Dennis Eijck, Sam Kerkhoven, Maritska Aarts and Femke Dijkstra for bringing the ConsciousDress to life. We’ve enjoyed every minute of the journey! #sustainability #environment #BuildingNewHabits #biodiversity

Today, on #InternationalUpcylingDay, the #ConsciousDress brings us to Euronext in Amsterdam. Amanda Linger had the honor to sound the gong presenting a vison that allows us to get a glimpse of the future cityscape, where technology, nature and humanity coexist. As Brunel Foundation we believe in inspiring the future generations for future industries and jobs, create environmental awareness and unlock talents to their fullest potential. With this #AI created picture we encourage you to pause, think and rethink: what new habits will you build to shape a sustainable future together? #sustainability #innovation #environment #futuregenerations #BuildingNewHabits

🌿 On #WorldRainforestDay, our #ConsciousDress is highlighting the importance of trees to our natural world. We planted the Brunel Foundation Forest's first trees with EcoMatcher | B Corp™ in 2021, aiming to boost biodiversity, climate, and support local communities. As our unique upcycled dress meets Earth's lungs through the power of #AI, we encourage you to stop, think, and rethink: what new habits will you build to shape a sustainable future together?

Have you ever traveled from the Netherlands to Glasgow by train? We did! It wasn't just a trip but a mission to inspire new habits among our colleagues at Taylor Hopkinson | Powered by Brunel in Glasgow. They all rolled up their sleeves for a Trash 'n Trace cleanup and prevented over 33kg of plastic, waste, and forever chemicals from finding their way into our oceans. 🌊♻️ Cleaning up is so much more than collecting litter; it’s about inspiring each other and building new habits. All changes we make together will impact the environment on a global scale. 🌍 #brunel #brunelfoundation #plastic #waste #cleanup #environment

"Neurodiversity is about all of us", according to writer/speaker Saskia Schepers. She strongly believes in the competitive advantage of neurodiversity in the workplace. In her eye-opening nominated book "When all minds thrive" she provides neurodivergent individuals with a fresh perspective on their capabilities and equips their environment with the tools to fully leverage them. The Brunel Foundation organized an interactive and inspirational session with Saskia, leaving us behind with lots of food for thought. Thank you for your personal approach. It sparked open, valuable conversations among our colleagues that, for sure, will resonate for a long time!

If we could have generated renewable energy from the eagerness and drive of the kids attending the OffshoreWind4Kids workshop last Sunday, we could have charged our batteries multiple times! Besides the hands on learning activity about wind energy, they had a moment to experience the fun and rewarding feeling of cleaning up the environment. As Brunel Foundation we want to give all children the opportunity to discover their talent and interests. By means of initiatives such as OffshoreWind4kids, Brunel's Trash 'n Trace and the collaboration with Petje af Nederland, we spark the curiosity of future professionals, unlock their talent and create awareness for sustainable behavior.
