CirculaRise

Our CirculaRise Programs are a unique offering that link environmental and social impact through Circular Economy and Just Transition strategies. 

While many capacity building programs help businesses transition from linear to circular models, we have seen that very often critical social elements are excluded in the strategy design. At Yunus Environment Hub we are trying to help bridge that gap through our CirculaRise Programs by supporting social business entrepreneurs, women MSMEs and leaders in organisations to incorporate just transition principles in their circular business strategies for holistic impact.

We offer 3 formats in our CirculaRise Program portfolio based on different target groups: CirculaRise Course, CirculaRise Accelerator and CirculaRise Academy. Learn more about the CirculaRise Programs below.
