Planet Ark was founded in 1992 as an Australian not-for-profit organisation working in collaboration with governments, businesses and communities. For more than 30 years, Planet Ark has been recognised by Australians as a trusted sustainability brand and is known for its important environmental behaviour change campaigns such as National Tree day. Planet Ark’s vision is to create a world where people thrive in balance with nature by supporting a transition to a carbon neutral and circular economy.
The Australian Circular Economy Hub (ACE Hub) was launched by Planet Ark in November 2020 with the support of the Australian Government. The key goal of the ACE Hub is to facilitate the transition to a circular economy in Australia. Since its launch, the ACE Hub has become Australia’s national reference platform for circular economy knowledge and collaboration. Through our research, education on circular economy is identified as a gap.
With CIRCO, Australian businesses are offered the opportunity to explore circular business opportunities specific for their company using CIRCO circular design methodology. Training participants in teams of two engage with content over three modules. Participants network with other participating companies to gain new insights and opportunities for collaboration. Each team walks away with a roadmap, designed by them for their organisation to take circular actions and transform their business.
