Circular Economy Academy Zasavje
Circular Economy Academy Zasavje
The Circular Economy Academy Zasavje is a strategic program co-developed by the Center for a Just Transition of Zasavje (CPPZ) and Circular Change. Its mission is to support coal-dependent regions in transitioning toward a circular and just future. Through capacity building, stakeholder engagement, and the development of practical tools—such as the Circular Toolbox—the Academy empowers local actors to co-create sustainable solutions and strengthen regional resilience. The Academy serves as a platform for knowledge exchange, pilot project development, and positioning Zasavje as a European lighthouse of change.
To further promote the Academy's activities, a bilingual brochure (Slovenian/English) has been developed to showcase best practices, achievements, and results. The creation of this brochure and accompanying materials is part of CPPZ’s broader program, providing essential information about the Academy and its role in advancing the circular economy in Zasavje. By producing these materials, CPPZ aims to raise awareness of the importance of the circular economy and support sustainable solutions for the future development of the region. The brochure is available in both digital and printed formats and will be presented at upcoming CPPZ events.

Akademija krožnega gospodarstva Zasavje
Akademija krožnega gospodarstva Zasavje je strateški program, ki sta ga skupaj razvila Center za pravični prehod Zasavje (CPPZ) in Circular Change. Namenjena je podpori premogovniškim regijam pri prehodu v krožno in pravično prihodnost. Z usposabljanji, vključevanjem deležnikov ter razvojem praktičnih orodij—kot je Krožni priročnik—akademija krepi lokalne akterje pri soustvarjanju trajnostnih rešitev in krepitvi regionalne odpornosti. Deluje kot platforma za izmenjavo znanja, razvoj pilotnih projektov in pozicioniranje Zasavja kot evropskega svetilnika sprememb.
Za boljšo predstavitev aktivnosti akademije je bila razvita dvojezična brošura (slovensko/angleško), ki izpostavlja dobre prakse, dosežke in rezultate. Priprava brošure in spremljevalnih gradiv je del širšega programa CPPZ, katerega cilj je predstaviti pomen in vlogo akademije pri uveljavljanju krožnega gospodarstva v regiji Zasavje. Z brošuro želi CPPZ okrepiti ozaveščenost o pomenu krožnega gospodarstva in podpreti trajnostne rešitve za prihodnji razvoj regije. Brošura je na voljo v digitalni in tiskani obliki ter bo predstavljena na prihodnjih dogodkih CPPZ.
The activities of the Center for a Just Transition of Zasavje are fully funded through the technical assistance of the Just Transition Fund.
