Economics need to change - now more than ever! With Exploring Economics, we strengthen alternative economic approaches and counter mainstream economics with a critical and pluralistic vision of economic education. We also provide background analyses on current economic debates to strengthen a critical economic discourse.
Unfortunately, we are running out of money to continue our work.
With a small contribution you can help Exploring Economics to stay online. Thank you!

This is a Micro-Masters program on Circular Economy offered by Wageningen UR. It consists of three shorter courses: From Fossil Fuels to Biomass: A Chemistry Perspective; Circular Economy: An Interdisciplinary Approach; Economics and Policies in a Biobased Economy.
This program covers a very wide variety of topics, looking at the concept and application of Circular Economy from different angles. It offers a well-rounded, multidisciplinary perspective, using sciences and humanities together for a deeper understanding of the topic. If you are interested in Circular Economy, this would be a good choice to start.
While edX offers free access to course materials, the completion of the Micro-Masters could aid prospective students in applying for full-time on-campus graduate-level programs, be it Wageninged or other universities.
