Workshops

ZABEK.me specializes in creating knowledge-based tools and educational formats to promote a deeper understanding of the circular economy in the built environment. The focus lies on empowering professionals and stakeholders to adopt sustainable and resource-efficient practices through tailored approaches:

Knowledge Dissemination

  • Educational Formats: Designing programs for planners, authorities, construction companies, and investors, offering a mix of collaborative (network events, advisory boards), informative (conferences, workshops, exhibitions, excursions, publications), and individualized (consultations) learning experiences.
  • Flexible Delivery: Offering digital, physical, and hybrid formats, catering to varying levels of expertise—from professionals to individuals with minimal knowledge of architecture or ecology.

Event Moderation and Hosting

  • Facilitating Conversations: Moderating and hosting events focused on circularity in the built environment, fostering dialogue and collaboration among industry leaders, academics, and policymakers.

Magdalena’s work bridges gaps in knowledge, making circular economy principles accessible and actionable for a wide audience.
