About

JECO was set up to emphasise and deepen the Jewish commitment to sustainability and to raise awareness within and beyond the Jewish community about Judaism’s strong environmental message.

JECO aims to: educate and encourage individuals to “tread softly on the face of the earth”; i.e. to minimise their environmental footprint. work with individuals and organisations to prevent and repair environmental damage. build bridges between the Jewish and wider community by working together for sustainability.

JECO provides topical events including film showings, presentations and walks with expert guest speakers, and participates in events including In One Voice, Limmud Oz, Mitzvah Day and Clean Up Australia Day.

JECO has hosted an edible weeds walk along Elster Creek, a St Kilda Botanic Gardens tour, and a ‘reverse garage sale’ to collect goods for recycling.

In 2017 JECO launched the monthly StKilda Repair Café in partnership with the Port Phillip EcoCentre, coordinating a team of volunteer fixers each month to teach repair skills in a social atmosphere.

This attracts a convivial crowd who teach and learn, with the satisfaction that we’re diverting items from landfill.
