Could your idea help shape a circular society?
Students now have the opportunity to contribute with concrete policy proposals that can help drive a more circular and sustainable society — with a chance to win SEK 25,000.
Across Europe, momentum for the circular economy is growing. New policies and initiatives are being introduced – yet resource use remains at unsustainable levels.
This competition invites university students to contribute with one clear, actionable policy proposal that can accelerate the transition to a more resource-efficient and circular society at the societal level. Build on what already exists, identify what is missing, and propose the next step forward.
