How much does it cost?

We want as many people as possible to stay informed and have access to resources on the circular economy and sustainability. Therefore, you only pay for the events you attend, to cover the organisational costs.

How do we communicate?

We communicate in two channels:

  • Our WhatsApp community, which has several subchannels for official information, resources, events or job opportunities.
  • By e-mail, which we primarily use to publish official information.

Please note that the main language of the interest group is English.

Would you like to join our team?

Our team is looking for fresh ideas and new energy. Organise an event, develop creative concepts, help out spontaneously or inspire other students for the topic of sustainability: your contribution will make a difference! If you’re interested in joining our team, just send us an e-mail.

Organisational team

Hi, my name is Maxime, I speak French and I have an engineering background. After several years in research and development, I decided to undertake the Master in Circular Innovation and Sustainability programme at BFH. I wanted to understand environmental challenges and develop innovative, multidisciplinary solutions that support the circular economy.

Find out more about Maxime

Following my studies in business administration, I was keen to pursue a career in an area that would have a positive impact on our future. So I undertook the interdisciplinary Master in Circular Innovation and Sustainability programme. Having studied in different fields and worked with people from diverse backgrounds, I am convinced that interdisciplinarity is key to achieving a sustainable transformation. The exchange of knowledge within an alumni group is a natural extension of this.

Line’s LinkedIn page

As a former girl scout, I have long been passionate about environmental issues. With my background in business administration and my master’s degree in Circular Innovation and Sustainability, I have experience in several fields: energy, construction and communication. My aim is to bring science, society and the industry together to develop practical solutions for greater sustainability.
