Shaping the future together

Whether in start-ups, academia, public institutions, or social initiatives—the best ideas spark when people come together. UniGR-CIRKLA creates the space to connect, share experiences, and shape the transition toward a circular economy together.

Because circular economy is about more than specific processes or technologies. It is about how we want – and are able – to live, work and create value in the future – how we meet our needs with limited resources, how we build and design our living spaces and infrastructures, and how we use materials and products for as long as possible while keeping their value.


The circular economy is a shared endeavour.
Let’s move it forward with UniGR-CIRKLA.

The transition towards a circular economy cannot be achieved in isolation. It requires the combination of scientific expertise, practical experience and diverse perspectives from different sectors and regions. UniGR-CIRKLA connects researchers, businesses and other relevant stakeholders to exchange knowledge, build partnerships and develop joint solutions across disciplines and borders.




Networking

The transition towards a circular economy happens at the interfaces – between disciplines, sectors and regions. Looking beyond borders creates opportunities to build new connections, find potential partners and develop joint activities.


Exchange

Joint meetings, seminars and other formats bring people together to discuss topics, present projects and share experiences. They open up new perspectives on implementing circular economy approaches in practice and foster mutual support through shared knowledge, expertise and practical advice.


Innovation

Innovation is a key driver of circular solutions – but it also requires the right structures and conditions to unfold. It is about creating environments where ideas can grow, collaborations can emerge and new approaches can be explored and tested in practice.

Repair, Reuse, Recycle

Electronic devices are becoming an increasingly central part of our everyday lives. However, they are made up of complex components that are often difficult to access and only partially repairable. As a result, valuable raw materials remain unused in drawers or end up as waste long before the end of their actual potential lifespan.

Time to make a difference – and to consciously extend the lifespan of our devices and their material components!
