Planning should take into account sustainable development and recycling.
2. Re-use of Emma (fabric) screens how can materials be recycled or get a new life?

Xamk design students have been involved in many different projects at previous Emma Galas. They have created, among other things, the interior of the wellness room, the Mega Emma statue, costumes, jewelry and the design of the Newcomer of the Year statue.

The projects at the Emma Gala are related to the elective course, so credits are awarded for the work done. In addition, there are posts about projects on Xamk social media and often the media also takes up the topic, so visibility for one's own work is promised.
