The concept of circularity

The current take-make-waste economic model has resulted in climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. In the 2021 Circularity Gap report, 70% of greenhouse gas emissions were associated with material handling and use. To tackle climate change and other negative consequences of the linear model we need to close the loop and move to a circular economy.

Circularity is a simple concept. It means that a product is created with its own end-of-life taken into account. In a circular economy, once the user is finished with the product, it goes back into the supply chain instead of the landfill.
The motto of the circularity movement in a nutshell, is: Waste not, Want not!

Our pillars

All our work is founded on 3 essential tenets:

People

Community development and engagement for a circular economy.

Planet

Promoting the overall well being of the environment by reducing waste, regenerating nature and circulating products and materials at their highest value.

Sustainability

Creating new products and sustainable business models for startups and companies with job creation for African youth and women as a by product.

Our team
