OUR MISSION
Working with partners in ASEAN countries to provide education on circular economy principles
Clyde Eiríkur Hull and Eric Williams are co-principal investigators on a new project funded by the United States Department of State in partnership between the U.S.-ASEAN Science, Technology and Innovation Cooperation (STIC) Program and the U.S.-ASEAN Smart Cities Partnership (USASCP). This program involves working with partners across the ten member states of ASEAN (Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam) to educate on circular economy principles and develop networks to disseminate circular entrepreneurship training as widely as possible across the region with the aim to promote more circular business, sustainable economic development, and environmental stability.
The project officially kicked off in Jakarta, September 2023.
