What is the Circular Economy Network?
Manchester Metropolitan University is a leading institution in circular economy.
We’re working regionally, nationally and internationally at the cutting edge of research and developments in circular economy ideas.
We want to share our expertise and experience and learn from and collaborate with others who share our vision of a brighter, more sustainable future.
Our Circular Economy Network is a key part of the university’s sustainability strategy. It’s for everyone, within the university and beyond.
So, whether you’re running a business or studying, whether you’re a researcher, artist, politician or policymaker, if you’re looking for inspiration, ideas and a place to collaborate for a better tomorrow, our Circular Economy Network is for you.
