Ellen MacArthur pursues 20 million designers in circularity push
ISLE OF WIGHT – The Ellen MacArthur Foundation has called for 20 million designers to help move the global economy towards a circular model, using its new Circular Design Programme to shift products at end-of-life away from landfill.
The Foundation says it has calculated that by 2025, there will be 160 million designers worldwide – equating to five per cent of the global workforce. “Our ambition is to engage these five per cent and make designing for the circular economy the new normal by 2025.”
