The event was organised and led by Christine Bertl, who is currently writing her masterโ€™s thesis on the topic of fostering awareness and action for circular economy principles through participatory communication methods, which fits to our research and work in the RURBANIVE project. Christine brought the principles of the ๐œ๐ข๐ซ๐œ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐š๐ซ ๐›๐ข๐จ๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ง๐จ๐ฆ๐ฒ to life through her Pizza Brunch concept – a hands-on workshop focussing on the use of regional ingredients and surplus products to create delicious, plant-based pizzas. Demonstrating that resource efficiency can be both tasty and inspiring.

Participants explored innovative, locally sourced products that embody circular bioeconomy values, including:
๐ŸŒพ Flour from leftover bread by Bรคckerei Strรถck
๐Ÿ„ Mushroom sugo and pesto from Hut & Stiel GmbH
๐Ÿฅฌ Fresh vegetables from Blรผn Aquaponic Foods
๐Ÿฅ‚ Innovative drinks from SIMIร†N

In addition to discussing ingredients and food-waste reduction, and cooking (and eating!) delicious pizza,ย  feedback was gathered on the ๐€๐‘ ๐š๐ฉ๐ฉ being developed within the RURBANIVE project. We are excited to see where this tool will go and how it can make an impact on the way people think about food-waste, ultimately sparking more interest and engagement in the circular bioeconomy.
The workshop fostered connections between regional suppliers, sustainability-driven companies, and engaged citizens , showing that the transition to circular principles is possible through networks, synergies, and community action.

A heartfelt thank you to all our partners and participants who made this event a success: Pierre Reboul/autriche, Christine Bertl, Lara Roth, Robert Slade, Nils Klose, Julia Schwarz.
