In the Kitchen With Hardik - the non-chef edition

L'Atelier des Non Chefs – Non Chef Edition LabCuina – Special Collection: "In the Kitchen With…" Obrador \| Saturday\, 11:00–14:00 Plant\-based \| Organic \| Local \| Seasonal \| Zero Waste **MENU OF THE DAY: A Cozy Japanese Autumn Curry** **THE SPIRIT** L'Atelier des Non Chefs is a collective, joyful and inclusive cooking experience for people who love food without needing to be professional chefs. It celebrates: \- Learning by doing \- Sharing knowledge and cultures \- Simplicity and creativity \- Community over performance **WHY THIS BRUNCH?** This unserious brunch has two main goals: Plant-based integration Making vegan food a natural part of daily life through recipes that are sustainable, whole-food based, nutritious and, above all, quick and easy to prepare. Community and solidarity Even more important is building community. This is a space for activists and people fighting injustice to connect with like-minded people, share meaningful time and take a break from the resistance they face in their work. A safe, inclusive environment rooted in empathy and love. **HOW IT WORKS** 1\. A short welcome 2\. We split into teams\, each with its own tasks 3\. We cook a simple\, healthy once\-course meal together 4\. We sit down and eat together 5\. We split into teams again for a quick\, efficient cleanup No experience needed. True to the "unserious cooking" spirit, it's low pressure and all about learning together. We keep the kitchen clean as we go so everything flows smoothly. **SCHEDULE** Saturday, 11:00 – 14:00 (3 hours) **CONTRIBUTION** – "Participación Consciente" We work with a conscious contribution model: \- Ingredient cost for this menu: approx\. 5–6 € \- Everyone contributes according to their means above the cost of the ingredients \- Contributions sustain the kitchen\, materials and collective activities This keeps the atelier accessible, fair and community-supported. **WHAT IS LABCUINA?** LabCuina is a social kitchen project, running since **2013**, that combines: \- Plant\-based and zero\-waste food experimentation \- Community learning \- Cultural exchange A space where cooking becomes a tool for social connection, education, ecological awareness and collective creativity. **WHAT IS A SOCIAL CANTEEN?** A social canteen is more than a place to eat. It uses food to: \- Build community \- Create inclusion \- Share resources \- Support accessibility Meals are affordable, participatory and values-driven, focused on care rather than profit. **WHY WE DO THIS** We believe cooking together can: \- Strengthen social bonds \- Empower people \- Encourage sustainable food choices \- Reconnect us with simple\, shared rituals In a fast-paced world, L'Atelier des Non Chefs creates a slow, human and meaningful moment around food. Come as you are. Cook together. Eat together. Learn together.

Follow the Money: Fossil Banks, COP31 & Citizen Action

**What happens when the money we put in the bank helps finance the very industries driving climate change?** We often talk about reducing our carbon footprints, changing our consumption habits, and pushing governments to take stronger climate action. But there is another important piece of the puzzle that deserves more attention: the role of banks, financial institutions and corporations in financing the fossil fuel industry and perpetuating the climate crisis. Following [our gathering last December](https://www.meetup.com/es-es/lets-talk-about-climate-change/events/312256713/?eventOrigin=group_calendar), where we came together to discuss COP30 and explore the realities of international climate negotiations, we're continuing the conversation. This month, we are honoured to have Adrien joining us again, and help us focus on the financial flows behind the climate crisis. We'll explore how banks continue to finance fossil fuels, how corporate interests influence climate policy, and what citizens can do to demand greater corporate accountability and drive change. **What will we discuss?** * COP31 and the influence of fossil fuel interests * Fossil banks: Following the money * Citizen action: Choosing a responsible bank * Corporate accountability beyond banking **About our speaker: Adrien Tofighi-Niaki** Adrien Tofighi-Niaki has 15 years of experience working at the intersection of climate change, environmental justice and human rights. His research focuses on extractive industries, corporate accountability, greenwashing, land rights and financial flows. He combines investigative research, data analysis and community-based approaches to support civil society advocacy and frontline communities. His work has been featured in The Guardian, BBC, Financial Times, NPR, Mongabay and Democracy Now!, among other international media outlets. Find out more: [https://www.aniaki.work/](https://www.aniaki.work/) **Why Join Us?** Climate action is not only about what governments decide at international conferences. It is also about where money flows, how corporations operate, and the choices and collective pressure we can bring to bear as citizens. Our everyday financial decisions may have more influence than we realise. Understanding the connections between our banks, corporate power and the climate crisis is an important step towards taking meaningful action. Whether you're already familiar with fossil fuel financing and corporate accountability or simply curious about what your bank has to do with climate change, you're very welcome! No specialist knowledge is required. **We kindly request a donation up to 5 euros to support the running of Let's Talk About Climate Change**, a voluntary initiative. See you there!

Forgotten Plants: Re-discovering Wild and Traditional Varieties

While this event itself is free of charge, **consumption at the venue is compulsory** and very affordable. We appreciate your understanding that our team works voluntarily, but the venue needs to pay rent and bills :) NUS - Neglected and Underutilized Species. In this workshop with **Alejandro García Díaz,** you will explore: * What they are * Why it's important to recover their use and related knowledge * Which ones can we find in this area of the Mediterranean, and * How they can be used Many of those plants were known and used everywhere a few decades ago; today, they are mostly used in less urbanized areas. The goal is to familiarize ourselves with those plants, in order to, little by little, reinsert them in our daily lives and support local biodiversity. Bonus! 🥕🪻🌿 There will be some samples of local plants for the audience to see, touch and smell! 🫳🏽👃🏼👀 ⌛♻️ **UPDATED** **Swap Shop** ♻️⌛ We're trying something new! Instead of bringing secondhand items, just bring yourself and your time, which you can exchange for someone else's. Intrigued but confused? We will explain how this works at the event, you don't need to prepare anything, just be ready to receive and give a bit of your time, if you want to participate.

Un-Artificial Intelligence - Debate

**Debate-maxxing with not-bots (that mean you).** ​If the idea of a debate scares you, you should come. Flipping between silent ignorance and vitriolic echo-chamber serves no one. ​It only scares us because we've lost the habit. Debates are enriching, thought-provoking, empathy-inducing. ​We debate a few non-triggering issues, take opposing sides, and stay friendly. ​So come. Be human. Be curious. Be thirsty. Let's see a bot try that! -- Debate-maxxing con no-bots (sí, tú). Si la idea de un debate te da miedo, deberías venir. Oscilar entre el silencio ignorante y la cámara de eco virulenta no le sirve a nadie. Solo nos da miedo porque hemos perdido la costumbre. Los debates enriquecen, hacen pensar, despiertan empatía. Debatimos unos cuantos temas que no levantan ampollas, nos repartimos los bandos y mantenemos el buen rollo. Así que ven. Sé persona. Ten curiosidad. Ten sed. ¡A ver cómo lo hace un bot! -- Debate-maxxing amb no-bots (sí, tu). Si la idea d’un debat et fa por, hauries de venir. Oscil·lar entre el silenci ignorant i la cambra de ressò virulenta no serveix de res a ningú. Només ens fa por perquè n’hem perdut el costum. Els debats enriqueixen, fan pensar, desperten empatia. Debatem uns quants temes que no aixequen butllofes, ens repartim els bàndols i mantenim el bon rotllo. Així que vine. Sigues persona. Tingues curiositat. Tingues set. A veure com ho fa un bot!

COP31 Outcomes and Leading Impact in times of uncertainty

Our social impact Meetup is back! At a time when securing and sustaining funding has become more challenging for many organizations in the impact space, we are coming together to reflect on the outcomes of COP31, share resilient leadership experiences and practices, learn from one another, and connect Welcome and Introduction by Devex (5 min) - Alex Cabaret Mini-Briefing: Key Outcomes from COP31 (10 min) - Lluis Vilardell Talk and Practice: Resilient Leadership - Navigating Uncertainty and Sustaining Impact (30-35 min) - Lauren Sorkin Networking Drinks (60 min) The Talk When funding shifts suddenly, it is not plans or organizations that feel the impact first, but the people who sustain them. Lauren Sorkin led the Asian Development Bank’s first climate investment strategy and served as Executive Director of the Resilient Cities Network, expanding it to more than 100 cities worldwide. Having navigated significant professional and personal challenges, she will share what she learned leading international organizations through periods of uncertainty and changing funding landscapes, and how those experiences gave rise to Embodied Leadership, the foundation of her work today. Following her reflections on resilient leadership, Lauren will guide the group through a gentle movement and breathing practice. Through simple techniques for regulating stress and focusing attention, participants will explore how the way we breathe and respond under pressure shapes the way we lead. The exercises are done in pairs and small groups, creating an informal and supportive environment for people to connect on both a personal and professional level, beyond titles and institutions. It is a natural way to break the ice, build trust, and strengthen community, especially for groups that are beginning to work together or looking to deepen existing relationships. No prior experience or special clothing is required, just a willingness to move, breathe, and connect.
