♻️ What is the circular economy really for?

A new blog by Lars Fogh Mortensen, Lewis Akenji, Sandrine Dixson-Declève, Janez Potočnik and Tom Jess argues that circularity should serve people and the planet, going well beyond managing waste. When circular and wellbeing goals come together through the nine R-strategies, the gains are tangible: more affordable homes, local jobs and stronger communities.

It also means measuring what matters: human outcomes, not just material flows.

🌍 Circularity is the means. Wellbeing is the goal.

Congratulations to Antonio Valero Capilla, member of the Club of Rome and his daughter Alicia Valero Delgado on winning the Friede-Gard-Prize 2026!

Together, Antonio and Alicia have developed thermodynamics and thermoeconomics at the Zaragoza School of Thermoeconomics, to measure what our economy really costs the planet — from raw materials to products to waste. Their work also points the way back, towards restored land and a truly circular economy.

You can register for the online award ceremony today, 15 October at 18:00 CEST - at which Carlos Álvarez Pereira, Secretary General of the Club of Rome, will be presenting the award - and the seminar on 16 October to learn more about Antonio and Alicia’s work. Register here: https://vist.ly/5nh4c

🌍 Every sustainable future is a human one.

Sustainability science shows us how fast our world is changing, but meaning, values and the will to act come from the humanities. Alongside science, Indigenous and lived experience, they belong at the centre of sustainability.

That's the heart of A Time of Great Consequence: A Manifesto for Bridging Knowledge and Action, published together with Bridges Sustainability Science Coalition and the Julie Ann Wrigley Global Futures Laboratory at Arizona State University.

What does sustainable development look like in Serbia?

The Serbian Chapter of the Club of Rome has spent the past decade bringing different fields of knowledge into discussions about Serbia’s future, through research, publications, lectures and international conferences. Its work has covered issues from radioactive waste and economic policy to ethical AI, science and art for sustainability.

In this conversation, Nebojša Nešković, President of the Serbian Chapter, speaks with Club of Rome Communications Fellow, Benita Ikpeamar, about the Chapter’s work, its recent activities and where it hopes to take its work next.

Would the greatest leaders of the last century handle the challenges of this one?

In the latest episode of the Club of Rome Podcast, Chandran Nair, founder and CEO of the Global Institute for Tomorrow and a member of the Club of Rome, argues that in a full world of eight billion people, even a statesman as admired as Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew would struggle to lead a large country like Indonesia today.

Listen to the full episode, in which Chandran sits with host Nolita Mvunelo, Principal of Cultural Transformations at the Club of Rome, to unpack colonial legacies, leadership and the shifting global order: https://vist.ly/5n6ad

Monetary resilience is part of Africa’s economic resilience

More than 75% of intra-African trade is settled in external currencies, leaving African economies exposed to monetary conditions they do not control.

In a new Club of Rome publication, Ken Alabi explores what a common African currency could mean for trade, economic integration and greater monetary resilience in the digital era.

Can a society like South Africa recover from 150 years of oppression in just 25 years?

Chandran Nair, founder and CEO of the Global Institute for Tomorrow and a member of the Club of Rome, offers a powerful analogy: it's like being hit by a bus, lying in intensive care with every limb broken, and being told to turn up to work tomorrow.

AI is not the threat. The way we use it might be.

Used to strengthen cooperation, AI could help build a world that works for all. Used as a weapon for profit, power and military dominance, it could accelerate humanity's path to self-extinction.

David Korten, member of the Club of Rome, argues that regulation alone cannot make AI safe. The real answer lies in transforming the competitive culture that shapes how we use it.

🌍 Several scientists, scholars, business leaders and policymakers are backing a new manifesto with a clear message: the crises of our age need every kind of knowledge.

Here is what some of them have to say about A Time of Great Consequence: A Manifesto for Bridging Knowledge and Action, including André Hoffmann, vice-chairman of Roche and co-chair of the World Economic Forum, and Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, France's former education minister.

Its central argument is simple but urgent: knowledge does not apply itself. Meeting this moment means learning across knowledge systems and building institutions capable of acting on what we know.
