Three children recycling

The Circular Economy Activity will inspire students to apply a remake, reuse, and recycle model in creating an entirely new product from recycled materials. By participating, they will develop their critical-thinking, creativity, communication, and entrepreneurship skills towards building a sustainable economy. The activity will help students:

  • Understand the concept, as well as the environmental and economic benefits of a circular economy.
  • Learn about the framework and model for designing, creating, and manufacturing products using recycled materials.
  • Develop creativity and STEM skills as they design products from recycled materials.
  • Understand the personal actions they can take to support a circular economy and reduce waste.
