The Circular Economy in Practice: A Case Study on how a school in Costa Rica is striving to become a sustainable leader
Join Mark Whalen, a geography teacher at Pan American School Costa Rica, which has recently received a 5 star Blue Flag Certification by the Ministry of Education as a leading Eco-School.

Mark will detail the school’s bottom-up approach to student engagement and project-based learning, where they are starting to see significant positive change in student consumption habits, even during the Covid-19 lockdown. You’ll also learn more on the school’s goal to collecting plastic waste. Here Mark will discuss how a community and model has been created, for a fully circular economy around plastic pollution. With this model, students are able to view the full breadth of the Circular Economy and the part they play in developing it in Costa Rica with their goal of becoming a Zero Waste School that invests in sustainable development of the community, country, and the wider world.
