4worldlovers: At Kaskantine, we are committed to community-based climate solutions and providing a space to connect.


As an off-grid organization, we are able to utilize plots of land that are temporarily available. Throughout our history, we have occupied four different locations, and currently, we can be found in Amsterdam-Slotervaart. Here, we have transformed eleven shipping containers and two greenhouses into a place for meeting, growing, eating, and collaborating.


Our programs and activities are aimed at empowering individuals and communities to take action on climate change and find joy in the process. From urban gardening, composting, and plant-based cooking to saving and redistributing food waste, building off-grid structures, and producing renewable energy, we offer a wide range of opportunities for hands-on learning and creating connections in our neighbourhood.


​Join us and be part of the movement towards a more sustainable, connected and resilient future.
