About This Collection

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation is an independent charity with the aim of inspiring a generation to re-think, re-design & build a positive future through the vision of a circular economy. Ellen MacArthur founded the Foundation to better understand how on land too we rely on finite resources in the form of materials, energy and water after her experiences as a world class sailor having sailed over 26,000 miles to become the fastest person to circumnavigate the globe single-handed.

The Circular Economy 100 is a global platform bringing together leading companies, emerging innovators and regions to accelerate the transition to a circular economy over a 1000-day (3 year) period. The Annual Summit was held Wednesday 19 June 2013.

[Ep. 1 Circular Design for Food] Designing food for nature to thrive
April 18, 2023

Redesigning our food system to help nature thrive—by increasing biodiversity, reducing waste and pollution, and enhancing production—starts with product design. The series 'Circular Design for Food: Rethinking Products to Regenerate Nature' explores what circular design for food is and why it's important.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, develops and promotes a circular economy. This approach, driven by design, eliminates waste and pollution, circulates products and materials, and regenerates nature.
