In diesem interaktiven Workshop erkunden wir Zirkularität im Alltag. Denn eine funktionierende Kreislaufwirtschaft braucht eine Kreislaufgesellschaft: Menschen, die zirkulär denken, handeln und leben. Gemeinsam erarbeiten wir theoretische Grundlagen zu Kreislaufgesellschaft und nachhaltigem Konsum und vermitteln praxisnahe Ansätze, wie Teilnehmende ihr eigenes Handeln an Kreisläufen ausrichten können. Darauf aufbauend entwickeln sie ein individuelles Selbstexperiment zur Zirkularität, das sie im Alltag umsetzen. Ob Ernährung, Mobilität oder Konsum, der Austausch mit anderen, das Einüben neuer Gewohnheiten oder das Hinterfragen bestehender Routinen – jedes Selbstexperiment macht Veränderung erfahrbar und lässt die Kreislaufgesellschaft konkret werden.
Dieser Workshop findet im Rahmen der „Frühlingsakademie Nachhaltigkeit 2026“ statt.
