During the workshop participants will learn how to contribute to the development of the circular economy and how to implement these actions into business. What elements to pay attention to, that the designed products not only be useful, but above all, safe for the environment, and their lifespan as long as possible.

CIRCO inspires companies and designers to engage and implement circular economy assumptions. In today's world, we follow a linear "take - make - waste" model, thanks to which our everyday articles contribute to an extremely rapid depletion of Earth 's natural resources.

Rational resource management is a solution to environmental problems and can bring significant savings. At the workshop, we will learn how to proceed in accordance with the concept of circular economy, and how to redesign the production chain, so as not to lose quality. Participants learn the design principles using methods and tools used by people associated in CIRCO.

The Embassy of the Netherlands in Poland with whole heart supports the concept of Circular Economy and design is where circular thinking starts.

Workshop organized as part of the ECO DAY.
