Circularity Academy is a training platform that teaches organisations how to incorporate circular principles into their operations. By providing stakeholders with the tools and knowledge needed to transition to a circular economy, Circularity Academy is helping to drive sustainable change.

Problem

Traditional linear business models rely on a "take-make-dispose" approach, which contributes to the depletion of natural resources and the accumulation of waste. This unsustainable model is no longer viable in a world where resources are becoming scarcer, and the impacts of climate change are increasingly evident. However, stakeholders often lack the knowledge and resources to transition to a circular economy.

Solution

Circularity Academy provides organisations with the training and tools needed to transition to a circular economy. The learning tracks within the platform cover topics such as biomimicry, waste reduction, and resource. efficiency. Participants are taught how to identify opportunities for circularity within their operations and how to implement circular principles into their business models.

Outcome

Circularity Academy has helped numerous stakeholders transition towards a more circular economy, reducing waste and improving resource efficiency. By training stakeholders to adopt circular principles, Circularity Academy is helping to drive systemic change towards a more sustainable future.
