What kinds of activities and workshops do schools usually run when they work on circular economy? Can you give us some concrete examples?

Lucija MaroltGUEST
Circular economy is something that needs a little bit of different approach, I would say.

Lucija MaroltGUEST
If the school, I would say traditionally have been working on waste, water, energy, and the mobility, the circular economy is, I would say, horizontal topic that could be integrated to other topics.

Lucija MaroltGUEST
But w- we have approached it through the project as well in order to put it on a higher level, to make students and teachers aware of the importance, and to integrate the principles of circular economy to activities.

Lucija MaroltGUEST
And also, of course, f- the first step is to train the trainers, to educate educators.

Lucija MaroltGUEST
And for sure, the first step was to address teachers, mentors, and to stimulate, motivate, and educate, but education is a pro- process and progress.

Over the years, have you noticed changes in how young people approach the concept of circular economy? Are they more aware today or more anxious, more engaged?
