Disrupt the take-make-waste system and spark solutions with the Circular Economy Collage

INTRODUCTION

Have you ever grasped the limits of our take-make-waste system and tooled you up for solutions? What if you could do that by playing?

This episode is a summer special edition with Anne-France, the co-founder of the Circular Economy Collage. It is a workshop powered by collective intelligence to understand the issues of our existing global “linear” economy and the opportunities offered by the circular economy. In this interview, Anne-France explains with passion the Why, the How, and the What!

Since 2020, the success of the Circular Economy Collage has had a huge impact on participants. And, before taking a break from broadcasting new episodes during the summer, I wanted to leave you with a perfect activity to experience no matter where you are in the world!

It is a tool I enjoy using to educate toward impactful actions! And no later than a few minutes before I record this intro, a client told me that she was losing track of time because she was having so much fun with this playful and collective workshop. And I am pretty sure that will be your case very soon!

Ready to discover how the cards are already in your hands?

PODCAST MUSIC

Special thanks to Joachim Regout who made the jingle. Have a look at his work here. 

I am happy to bring a sample of our strong bonds on these sound waves. Since I was a child, he made me discover a wide range of music of all kinds. I am also delighted he is a nature lover and shares the Look4Loops 'out of the box philosophy'. He is an inspiring source of creativity for me.
