The new volume Handbuch Kreislaufwirtschaft, one of the most comprehensive upcoming publications on circular economy practices in the German-speaking region, will be released on 26 January 2026.

The handbook brings together leading experts, practitioners, and researchers to provide an interdisciplinary overview of the frameworks, tools, and strategies shaping circular transitions in business and policy.

Circular Change Contributes to the Handbook

The publication features a chapter co-authored by Ladeja Godina Košir, Founder and Executive Director of Circular Change and Co-Chair of the European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform (ECESP), together with Mina Mansoor, Project Manager at Circular Change.

Their contribution focuses on the role of transition brokers—key actors who connect public institutions, industry, civil society, and knowledge communities to accelerate circular transformation. Drawing on European case studies and more than a decade of practical experience, the chapter outlines how transition brokers support collaboration, innovation, and system change.
