Defining the challenges

The challenge framing will consist in transforming shared problems into challenges that unlock opportunities for the future.

During the arena, the different participants will have the opportunity to openly discuss and share their visions and concerns related to circular economy. Through this experience-sharing and brainstorming approach, some common issues or questions will be identified and further refined to become challenges.

During the arena, we will give you examples of challenges and a template to help structure your challenge.

Following the 1st Arena, over 35 potential challenges ideas were developed from the 6 round table around topics such as how to recycle materials from a demolition site and recycle waste water in collective building.  Some of these challenges have been deployed in the context of professional contracts, forms of apprenticeship and will be further deployed for ECIU University for the upcoming semesters.
