Overview

The hub Towards a Circular Economy and Society of Pathways to Sustainability is a platform for scientists of Utrecht University and stakeholders to jointly contribute to the transition to a sustainable circular society. In the hub, Utrecht University researchers from a large range of academic disciplines collaborate with societal partners to develop new insights, technologies and policies to help society become circular. The transformation requires collaboration over the whole supply chain, while creating new value chains. In turn, this requires a wide coalition of researchers, practitioners, and policy makers from a wide spectrum of disciplines and backgrounds to provide the knowledge to guide the process. Launched in November 2019, the hub is a unique place where these backgrounds meet to generate new cutting edge insights and initiate new research activities in this direction.
