The ‘Learning Circle’ is an opportunity for community members to share the knowledge and expertise they have, and for the Circular Berlin community to engage with and chat to each other over a topic. Through this format, you can have a quick exchange with the experts and practitioners in our community. We offer our Learning Circle session monthly, which takes place Online on the first Thursday of each month for 1 hour at 5.30 pm.
The upcoming Learning Circle will be held on 07.05 by Felipe Schmidt Fonseca on the topic ‘Reuse datasets for alternative circularities of products and materials’.
Despite recent advancements in terms of legislation and industrial practices, a fully closed-loop economy is not yet feasible in the foreseeable future. In such a scenario, recycling won’t be enough to cope with the growing volume of goods being manufactured every day, in the whole world. Felipe's PhD research (Northumbria University / Mozilla Foundation) explored convivial approaches to create socially inclusive local systems of waste prevention that help divert potentially reusable materials from the waste stream. This presentation will focus on “reuse datasets”, a design concept developed during Felipe's investigation to help seek alternative circularities through commons-based governance of data relevant for the reuse of products and materials.
To join this community session and support our work, we ask for a small donation of at least €3.50 from non-members of Circular Berlin.
