Circular Icons [English]

These Circular Economy Icons and Cards are versatile educational tools, ideal for workshops and training sessions on Circular Economy, especially within the food system. They can be used to create visual aids or cards that represent specific topics (e.g., legal frameworks, technological barriers) or stakeholders (e.g., farmers, manufacturing companies).

Perfect for interactive activities such as role-playing, implementation discussions, and solution brainstorming, these materials help participants explore the complexities and foster a deeper understanding of the opportunities of circular economy systems in a hands-on and engaging way.

Best Practice Cards [German]

Explore our Best Practice Cards, designed to simplify the complex topic of the circular economy. These cards are ideal for use in classrooms and training sessions, offering practical insights through real-world company examples.

They can also be featured at events—for instance, displayed on a stand where exhibitors and participants can easily pick them up. In this way, the cards act as conversation starters, illustrating how circular economy principles can be applied in practice. For more details, see the Documentation file.

Misprint Sticker

During the project, one of the reports was misprinted. Since the misprints were purely aesthetic and did not affect the content, the team wanted to avoid wasting resources. To address this, they created a Misprint Sticker to apply to the misprinted copies.

This simple solution demonstrates how circular economy principles can be applied, even in the face of small setbacks, and can easily be adapted to your own context. See the following file for an example.

An initative of the Circular Food Hubs created within the Interreg Alpine Space CEFoodCycle project:

Circular Food Hubs acquire, educate and supervise stakeholders in the defined food streams to close food cycles and facilitate sustainable decision making. Activities such as workshops or hackathons enhance awareness among stakeholders to reduce and avoid food waste and to find innovative closed food cycle solutions. Further information can be found on the regional websites of the Circular Food Hubs.
