The course aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the opportunities and challenges involved in transitioning to a more resource-efficient and circular economy. This shift represents a fundamental change in business development and economic opportunities. The course covers the definition of circular economy and key concepts such as regeneration, disruption, and closing the loop. It highlights the potential of this new economic model in terms of value creation, job generation (including new green jobs), and its contribution to climate action. Additionally, students will learn about the urgency of moving from a linear to a circular economy, the importance of political will in facilitating this transition, and the potential for innovation and the development of new business models.
