Summer language Coffee №6

During this Summer Language Coffee event on 21st of August we set out to examine and discover new ways in which we, as individuals, can make more conscious choices as consumers, thereby adding value and awareness to our lives.

The key topic of our discussion was “Consumer Awareness.” This concept is essential to consider every time we make a purchase. Unfortunately, it’s often overlooked in our daily routines. Many of us buy products without fully understanding their quality, origin, or the broader impact of our consumption choices.

Throughout the activities at the Summer Language Coffee, participants had the opportunity to reflect on and share their personal experiences with ordering or purchasing products, discuss consumer rights,etc. These discussions were not just about sharing stories but about recognizing patterns and behaviors that contribute to uninformed consumerism. Together, we examined how we might break free from impulsive purchasing habits and instead adopt a more mindful and intentional approach when making decisions.

The conversations at the SLC underscored the importance of starting with ourselves—making small, conscious changes in how we shop and consume. By becoming more aware of our roles as consumers and focusing on making informed, thoughtful purchases, we can contribute to a more empowered and responsible marketplace.
