Förderung der Circular Literacy am Beispiel der metallverarbeitenden Industrie

Circular literacy involves not only understanding the principles of the circular economy, but also being able to implement them. However, companies in the metalworking industry in particular face a critical point: they have to master their day-to-day business while developing sustainable strategies at the same time. However, there is often a lack of orientation in this process. This thesis develops a framework that supports companies in reflecting on their current situation, developing a vision and exploring ways to implement it. It illustrates what the first strategic steps can look like.
As an example, the bridging of the knowing-doing gap, the gap between knowledge and realization, is examined at employee level. In order to close this gap, ideas for learning formats are developed in a collaborative manner. In this way, employees can be informed, motivated and enabled to continue the process and integrate circular economy into the organization.
