The concept of the circular economy represents a shift from the traditional linear economic model of take-make-consume-throw-away to one that promotes resource reuse, repair, refurbishment, and recycling. This transition is vital for environmental protection, resource conservation, and sustainable business practices. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play a significant role in this shift, facing unique challenges and opportunities.
This module aims to equip participants with knowledge, skills, and the right mindset to understand, implement, and benefit from circular economy practices in industrial businesses.
