Understand the System
In Workshop 1 you see the industry context, tangibly relating it to your system and exploring how your organization impacts others. Using the science-based Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) we introduce 8 core sustainability principles and the role of the circular economy, guiding you to map your ideal circular system.

Set Your Vision, Lock Your Mission
After envisioning your ideal circular system, we help you develop a mission that can be embedded into your organization’s DNA. Once you know where you want to go, you measure your baseline of where you are today, and begin to see the gap between the two.
