WeUse is a platform enabling communities such as housing associations, sports clubs, companies and private persons to become more sustainable and strengthen the cohesion by sharing resources, helping and connecting each other in closed networks.
Besides saving space and costs of owning the resources yourself, you can earn money by providing your neighbourhood with resources you own. WeUse does not only have a direct positive impact on our environment, but also on our society by encouraging a mindful consumption, creating a strong community, and lowering the barrier for a positive contribution to our environment, by every individual.
Most of our human behaviour is based on routines. If an object breaks or we need something in a specific situation, we tend to just go out and buy a new one, even though we will not use it that often. With WeUse we want to support a behavioural change in our society in favour of our environment. By developing an app, with a focus on a low usage barrier and a front-end created in collaboration with potential users, where people can easily rent each others objects, we want to strengthen the concept of a shared economy in our communities. the goal is to inspire people to change their mindset by using the app.
