Masterclass "Circular Economy"

20 September 2024

Join the new three-day evidence-based master class "Circular Economy" (English) from Maastricht University and become part of this learning community. During the master class, you will have the opportunity to work on your own challenges or your organisation's challenges.


In this Circular Economy Masterclass, you will learn all about the shift to a circular economy that focuses on reducing, reusing and recycling materials. Discover why circularity is essential for preserving our planet and creating a sustainable future. Learn how to measure and improve your organisation's impact and how your own leadership plays a crucial role in it. In addition, discover how collaboration with others in the chain and with external partners contributes to achieving circularity goals. Circularity requires cooperation between government, companies and organisations in the chain, and educational institutions.

Are you a professional looking to change direction in your career, regardless of function or position, and want to contribute to strengthening the circular economy? This could be from an advisory role, project leader, programme manager or policy role at government agencies, healthcare institutions or a commercial organisation. Then sign up for the masterclass "Circular Economy" and gain insight into:

  • The principles and fundamental concepts of the circular economy and circular business, such as reducing, reusing and recycling materials;
  • circular sustainability strategies and business models and experience how to identify circular opportunities;
  • how to argue why circularity is essential for preserving our planet and creating a sustainable future, you have experienced what organisations are up against in their circular ambitions, and learn how to address these issues;

  • your own leadership development and know what skills are needed to make the transition needed to shape circular business;
  • what it takes to collaborate with others (in the supply chain and stakeholders) and have experienced this during class days and in your own practice.
