Circular Economy Circular Economy

Some argue that innovation always goes hand in hand with cycles of destruction. Others believe that the economy should make more space for concepts from organic ecology and circular economy. But how would such an economy really work? What kind of stability could it achieve? One of the key success factors could be cross-sectoral collaboration. It is argued that it would not only benefit all parties involved in the process but also increase the ecological and social benefits. During this working session, Floris Schiferli (Superuse Studios) and Benjamin Gaulon (artist and researcher, Recyclism) and other guests took a critical look at this approach by working together in search of concepts and mechanisms that would facilitate a circular economy.
