💬 How to Tell Stories That Build Trust and Action? is a event series that explores how clear, credible, and engaging narratives can support the adoption of circular products, services, and practices.
The focus is on communicating sustainability in ways that avoid greenwashing and build trust, with a strong focus on activation rather than awareness.
✅ Across three sessions, participants will learn how to translate complex circular systems into compelling stories, develop strong pitches, and adapt messages for different audiences, channels, and cultural contexts – combining strategic insight with practical tools for real-world impact.

📅 𝟐𝟕.𝟎𝟑 𝐚𝐭 𝟏𝟑.𝟎𝟎-𝟏𝟔.𝟎𝟎 𝐄𝐄𝐓: 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠
The first session addresses why sustainability communication often fails and how greenwashing risks emerge. Core principles of credible sustainability communication are introduced, focusing on evidence, transparency, and tone. You will learn how to translate sustainability claims into proof and build confidence in communicating circularity in a clear and trustworthy way.

📅 𝟎𝟖.𝟎𝟒 𝐚𝐭 𝟏𝟑.𝟎𝟎-𝟏𝟔.𝟎𝟎 𝐄𝐄𝐓: 𝐂𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠
This session focuses on storytelling as a tool to make complex circular systems understandable and engaging. It explores narrative structures, emotional and rational arguments, and audience-specific framing. You will learn how to develop a compelling pitch for your own project and adapt circular stories to different audiences without oversimplifying or exaggerating.

📅 𝟏𝟎.𝟎𝟒 𝐚𝐭 𝟏𝟑.𝟎𝟎-𝟏𝟔.𝟎𝟎 𝐄𝐄𝐓: 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐬, 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐬
The final session translates storytelling into real-world communication practice. Different channels and content formats are examined, alongside cultural differences in how sustainability is perceived and discussed. You will learn how to select appropriate channels, adapt messages across contexts, and apply storytelling tools in a way that supports trust, relevance, and adoption.
