In this 4-week long biodiversity challenge, the LDE Centre for Sustainability Students invited other students from a broad variety of studies across Leiden-Delft-Erasmus universities and beyond to come up with a biodiverse and sustainable design of greenfields around the Mercedes-Benz factory in Bremen, Germany.

Three designs were presented during the final session, with Evangelia Siskaki being the winner of the challenge, followed up by the team Mercedes Bees and Mercedes Greenz.
I am glad to have met the Centre of Sustainability Students team and Max! The biodiversity challenge by CfS Students and Mercedes- Benz was an opportunity for us to be creative under the terms of biodiversity and sustainability. For me the real challenge was to transform a green divider into a living green space where people and other species could co- exist. Small interventions to human altered landscapes could have great outcomes when working together with bigger targets that focus on the conservation of biodiversity.
