Wondr Diamonds - Wealth Out Of Waste

Wondr Diamonds Presents the Wealth Out of Waste Contest: Unleashing Creativity in Young Minds this Children’s Day!

With Children’s Day just around the corner, Wondr Diamonds, India’s largest lab-grown diamond brand, is thrilled to introduce an exciting opportunity for kids to showcase their creativity and sustainability skills. The “Wealth Out of Waste” contest invites children under the age of 14 to create something useful and innovative from items typically thrown away. This unique contest is aimed at fostering sustainable consciousness in the next generation, encouraging them to look at everyday waste as a resource with boundless potential.


Contest Theme:

Design a craft that can be used in the jewellery showroom

Embracing Sustainability: What the Contest is About

The “Wealth Out of Waste” contest focuses on repurposing reusable and recycled materials—such as newspaper, tetra packs, old utensils, and jute materials—into new creations. This initiative steers clear of non-biodegradable materials like plastic and thermocol, emphasizing a zero-waste ethos and sustainable living. Through this contest, Wondr Diamonds hopes to nurture a creative mindset and encourage kids to think resourcefully, setting them on a path toward making environmentally conscious choices.

Participation Details and Judging Criteria

Young participants have the chance to visit any of the 14 Wondr Diamonds showrooms across India to present and explain their unique creations to the Wondr team, who will document each entry. This direct interaction allows children to proudly describe the thought process behind their creations and how they transformed waste into something meaningful.

Categories

Category A: 6-9 years

Category B: 10-14 years

Entries will be judged on creativity, resourcefulness, and the explanation provided by each participant. The top three winners from two age groups (6-9 and 10-14) will be recognized at each store. To celebrate the very best entries, one child in each age category, chosen from all 14 showrooms, will win a bicycle as the grand prize.

The Rewards Await!

In addition to the excitement of competing, every child participating in the “Wealth Out of Waste” contest will receive a certificate and a small gift as a token of appreciation. Wondr Diamonds, in collaboration with The Hindu, is proud to recognize the talents and hard work of all young participants. The entries are open until 1 December 2024, with results announced on 8 December 2024.

Locations and Additional Benefits

With showrooms across five states—including Chennai, Coimbatore, Bangalore, Calicut, Guntur, and Hyderabad—Wondr Diamonds makes it convenient for families to visit, participate, and explore the world of lab-grown diamonds. Known for offering exchange and buy-back facilities, Wondr Diamonds redefines luxury with eco-friendly, ethically sourced lab-grown diamonds that are identical to mined diamonds in physical, chemical, and optical properties.

So, young creators, it’s time to gather those discarded materials, think outside the box, and transform waste into something wonderful.

GOETHE UPCYCLING COMPETITION


The theme for this year's World Library and Information Congress is "Working together for the future". We know that collaboration breeds innovation. Many great inventions have come from linking existing ideas. Libraries create analogue and digital spaces that bring creative people together to work on the challenges facing our societies and find solutions together. Two of these challenges are Sustainable Living and Generating Revenue for Start-ups in the Cultural and Creative Industries. Our Upcycling Competition aims to address these two themes. 

Upcycling ("up" and Recycling / "Reuse") is the process of transforming waste or (apparently) useless materials into products of new value. In contrast to downcycling, this form of recycling results in the recovery of materials. By recycling or reusing existing materials, the use of raw materials can be reduced (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upcycling). By reusing and converting used materials, unusual and everyday objects will be creatively redesigned and thus upgraded or brought into a different context.

The Goethe-Instituts in the Sub-Saharan Africa Region support the creative exploration of the topic of upcycling and want to contribute to sustainability through various measures. We are therefore launching this Goethe-Upcycling Call for ideas.

Concepts and ideas for upcycling should be submitted. The selected ideas will receive financial support of up to EUR 1,000. The Goethe-Upcycling competition is open to all creative people, Librarians, Craftsmen, Artists, Designers and anyone who has a good idea that meets the competition criteria.
