The final Project ReDesign workshop, held at Oxford's Examination Schools on March 25, 2011, challenged students to rethink waste as a materials opportunity. They explored systems-level redesign in a world of finite resources and rising energy costs.

Volunteers from the Foundation's Founding Partners – B&Q, BT & CISCO, Renault, and National Grid – provided expert industry support.

With resource and energy prices becoming increasingly volatile, the long-term viability of today's linear economy is in question. This raises the idea of favoring access and performance over ownership of goods.

A short animation from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation introduces this concept, illustrating how a performance model could benefit businesses, users, and the wider economy. This approach is a vital component in the transition to a regenerative circular economy.

Cities globally are adopting circular economy principles to build thriving, livable, and resilient futures. These principles are integrated into various policies, from planning guidelines and public procurement to citizen and business awareness campaigns. The aim is to leverage technology for economic development, job creation, and CO2 reduction.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation's cities team supports key cities in this transition. A live broadcast will feature representatives from these leading cities, sharing their progress.

This session delves into financing and measuring the circular economy. Discover how it drives new growth, achieves climate and ESG goals, and how its financing market has rapidly expanded across asset classes. We will also explore methods for measuring circularity performance to inform decision-making for both business leaders and financiers.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, accelerates the transition to a circular economy through business initiatives, learning, insights & analysis, and communications. Learn more about our work: www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org.

Cities are vital for advancing the circular economy, unlocking economic, environmental, and social benefits, especially as two-thirds of the global population will live in urban centers by 2050.

Cities are vital for advancing the circular economy, unlocking economic, environmental, and social benefits, especially as two-thirds of the global population will live in urban centers by 2050. Currently, cities face challenges from a "take-make-waste" linear economy. A circular economy offers a critical opportunity to rethink resource use and ensure long-term urban prosperity.

The "Circular Economy in Cities" project focuses on urban systems like buildings, mobility, and products, guiding city governments on implementing circular principles and policies. The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, is a global leader accelerating this transition.

Cities are crucial for advancing the circular economy, unlocking economic, environmental, and social benefits. By 2050, most people will live in cities, which currently consume vast resources, generating significant waste and emissions under a linear "take-make-waste" system. A circular economy offers a vital path to rethink resource use, supporting city priorities and prosperity.

The "Circular Economy in Cities" project explores opportunities in urban systems (buildings, mobility, products), guiding city governments on transition strategies and policy.

This episode explores how to transition to an economic system that regenerates nature. We feature three companies developing materials that work in harmony with our environment, examining how their innovations can be scaled.

Materiom co-founder Liz Corbin discussed this topic with fellow co-founder Alysia Garmulewicz, Julia Marsh (Sway), and Ehab Sayed (Biohm) at the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Innovation Day in 2022.
