The 🌀 CircleMED Future Labs initiative is expanding with two new events taking place in Kozani, Western Macedonia, on December 4 and 5, 2025 led by Incommon with the support of Εθνικό Κέντρο Έρευνας και Τεχνολογικής Ανάπτυξης. The events will focus on aspects of the circular economy in the everyday life of citizens, both in their daily habits and in the local business models.
💡 Through the workshops, it will be highlighted how citizens of Kozani perceive the challenges and opportunities of the transition from the existing linear to a circular economy, reflecting both the results of the “Surveying Citizens Local Report”, and on the takeaways of the two Local Advisory Board meetings held in the region.
🎲 Games will be used to highlight the creative ideas of the participants linked to the aspects of the circular economy, such as: Prevention, Repair, Reconstruction, Reuse, Composting, Recycling, Sharing Economy, Bioeconomy, etc.
🎭 Participants will be invited to explore their challenges through theatre-pedagogical activities and to develop solutions using the principles of the R’s of circularity.
Crucially, both Labs will be supported and assisted by distinguished Local Advisory Members, who will bring invaluable knowledge, experience and expertise to the process.
In addition, the results of the two Future Labs aim to:
🔹Bring new perspectives to the public debate.
🔹Strengthen social dialogue around alternative solutions to dominant paradigms.
🔹Enable discussion and citizen participation to raise awareness around circularity and sustainability issues.
