Sustainable Business and Circular Ecosystems

About the Program 

In today’s rapidly evolving world, businesses are being called upon to rethink not only how they operate, but also how they create value for society and the planet. Traditional linear models—based on “take, make, and dispose”—are increasingly unsustainable in the face of resource depletion, climate change, and growing stakeholder expectations. This has given rise to a new paradigm: sustainable business practices and circular ecosystems. This course will look into various aspects of Sustainable business and Circular economy
