Smart investments in research and education should be organized in all levels of education: kindergarden, primary school, high school, university, courses for eldery, because all citizens need to be educated towards circular economy. Depending on the level of education, research and innovation can be organized towards urderstanding the concept of ecodesign towards improved durability, reusability, repairability, energy performance, recyclability, amount of recycled content, and other environmental aspects. Municipalities can also train and educate citizens towards re-use materials and products, savings, shrinking waste, promoting repair and reuse of digital products, promote reuse shops, reusable deposit on public events in order to follow the environmental and social public procurement criteria, raise citizen and stakeholder awarness by partnerships for reusing economy.
