Circular Economy FNQ Inc
As a group, we were established in early 2017 and through that time we contributed to the Zero Plastic local and state conversations. We also created the foundation version of the Waste Map to identify locations that were taking sorted waste .
We were formed to create a place for many organisations and groups to have a central place to come together and share their knowledge for a common goal – the environment.
Now as our board grows with members who have done at least 300 volunteer hours and have a passion for ensuring we have diverse actors; teachers, art, business, data, environmental engineers and outside the box thinkers to create an atmosphere of thriving. Our goal this decade is to develop a hub of Circular Economy specialists and entrepreneurs in our precinct where we focus on two core principles of Circular Economy; REDUCE and REDESIGN. In that order.
Our Circular Economy goals to decentralise waste management and introduce reManufacturing into remote and regional Australia.
