Transitional Changemakers

The Transitional Changemakers Program activates and supports people across Berlin to become ambassadors for the circular economy in their neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces. Through training, tools, and community, we enable citizens to turn awareness into action and make circular practices visible, relevant, and aspirational in daily life. Circular change only becomes real when it’s lived…

IMPACT GOAL

Berliners become visible drivers of circular culture — changing what’s normal, valued, and possible.

We aim to increase public awareness, confidence, and participation in circular practices by growing a citywide network of active changemakers

IMPACT PROGRESS

This is where we stand at.

We envision a future where circular thinking is embedded in everyday life, in public policy, and in business decisions. Where waste becomes a resource, collaboration is the norm, and Berlin leads the way as a global model for circular culture, economy, and governance.
