    Cradle to Cradle NGO: A Vision for a Sustainable Future

    The Cradle to Cradle NGO, officially known as Cradle to Cradle - Wiege zur Wiege e. V., is a non-profit non-governmental organization aimed at promoting and disseminating the Cradle-to-Cradle approach of a continuous and sustainable circular economy.

    Key Products and Services

    • Educational Work and Networking: The NGO offers workshops, information talks, guides, and educational programs for schools, universities, and businesses to spread the C2C idea and connect interested parties[1][3][4].
    • C2C LAB: The C2C LAB in Berlin serves as the head office, educational center, and real laboratory to make Cradle to Cradle tangible both conceptually and practically. It demonstrates the feasibility of a C2C-compliant renovation and is a central place for stakeholder networking[1][3][4].
    • Regional Initiatives: The NGO connects cities and municipalities with regional businesses and initiatives and promotes local exchange through regular meetings and events[1][3].

    Mission and Values

    The mission of the Cradle to Cradle NGO is to encourage organizations and individuals to rethink and redesign in order to promote an intact world. It brings together business, science, education, politics, culture, and civil society to shape a healthy and sustainable future. The focus is on viewing all waste as a nutrient for something new and using only materials that are recyclable and suitable for their intended use[2][3].

    Sustainability Goals and Initiatives

    • Circular Economy: The core goal is to realize an ideally waste-free circular economy by developing all industrially manufactured products so that they can be fully reused or composted without pollutants after use[1][3].
    • C2C Congress and Events: The NGO organizes the C2C Congress, the C2C Forum, LAB Talks, and other events annually to spread the C2C idea and connect stakeholders[1][4].
    • Partnerships and Networks: It works closely with companies, municipalities, and other organizations to initiate and support C2C projects. This includes participation in the EU project New European Bauhaus since 2021[1][3][4].

    The Cradle to Cradle NGO is committed to a sustainable and healthy future through its comprehensive work and networking by bringing the Cradle-to-Cradle approach into all parts of society and influencing public debates.
