Abstract:

Education and research play a key role in Finland’s systematic transition towards a circular economy. LAB University of Applied Sciences (LAB) has been a part of several national and international circular economy research and development projects to develop teaching methods and learning environments in cooperation with industry leaders. This article presents the main results and discusses three different projects where LAB has been involved in the development of circular economy expertise in the textile and clothing sector.
