Open | Consumer behaviour for a circular system transition (KIC)

The KIC-Call 'Consumer behaviour for a circular system transition' is open. The Call focuses on finding effective ways to help people consume more sustainably. This is done with a broad view of the whole system so that it contributes to the transition to a circular economy.

The transition to a circular economy requires fundamentally different consumption patterns. Although there is already considerable support for a more sustainable society, targeted interventions are needed to stimulate actual behavioural change (at the systemic level). The aim of this call for proposals is to gain insight into effective interventions, measures and strategies that promote circular consumer behaviour, based on state-of-the-art research on systemic transitions, behavioural change and the circular economy. This call for proposals focuses on research that analyses, designs and applies interventions. The interaction between behavioural, systemic and cultural factors is central to this.

Collaborative Workshops

Before the submission round, NWO is organising two collaborative workshops on 11 and 30 June 2025. During these meetings, researchers, social organisations, and other interested parties will come together to explore ideas, connect expertise, and form innovative partnerships.

The workshops build on each other in terms of content; participation in both is mandatory for main applicants.

For more information on the conditions, the application procedure, and the workshops, please visit the official NWO page.
