Backcasting from principles is a systematic and elegant way to implement Cradle to Cradle 

 

Main RQ

  • How can a society successfully strategically transition towards Cradle to Cradle?
 

 

Sub RQ

  • 1 - SUSTAINABLE C2C How can a successful transition in terms of sustainability be defined?
  • 2a - SOCIETAL SUCCESS - How can a society in which Cradle to Cradle has been entirely implemented best be characterized? (C2C can be a very valuable source)
  • 2b - What are the roles and functions that organizations will fulfill in this Cradle to Cradle society?
  • What is the current reality with respect to the Cradle to Cradle vision?
  • How can strategic planning from the current reality towards the Cradle to Cradle vision best take place? (strategic guidelines)
 

 

Backcasting from principles 

Cradle to Cradle society characteristics 

Described/bounded 

 

 

 

 

General methodology that you should use, we work first on our general approach and later on we’ll do a case study to apply the methodology 

WE NEED TO DEVELOP AN APPROACH ON WHAT PEOPLE WE APPROACH AT WHAT STAGE

  How can a succesfull transition in terms of sustainability be defined? How can a society in which Cradle to Cradle has been entirely implemented best be characterized/described? What are the roles and functions that organizations will fulfill in this Cradle to Cradle society? What is the current reality with respect to the Cradle to Cradle vision? How can strategic planning from the current reality towards the Cradle to Cradle vision best take place?      
Tasks Redefine C2C in order for it to have the potential to lead to a sustainable society reframe c2c into characteristics (for guidelines later on   SWOT of industrialized society develop generic strategic guidelines      
  FSSD/C2C analysis; Phase 1 discussion document --> feedback from network   general understanding of the system develop strategic guidelines/model for applying the strategic planning methodology towards the Cradle to Cradle vision      
  Describe under what conditions transition to C2C is desirable Explore methodology to structure the characterization of the C2C society   develop methodology to assess current reality for society find out what guidelines are needed for the strakeholders to integrate in their planning approach      
  *why do C2C and FSSD complement each other (Checkland - soft systems methodology; Joe Laur; Drift; Club of Amsterdam)   interview for SWOT - merge our ideas and theirs        
  * strengths and weaknesses of C2C and FSSD Choose 1 of the approaches   in a specific case:        
  expand system boundaries of c2c approach from product orientation to society Collect ideas from experts   How do we assess the current reality? How to define relevant aspects?: link to implementation in a case study      
    Derive general characteristics of C2C society   Provide methodology that we propose onj how to do CR assesment on specific organisation.        
    develop method of surveying/interviewing + set of questions/intention for coversations   open up possbile methods + ask for input        
    read C2C and articles around it to find description of societal success of C2C   specific case study        
    map stakeholders of the future society (such as e.g. end-of-life marketplace)   tied to workshop        
    structure the reasoning in such a way that it is easy to build upon the work and also easy for people to discuss the content            
    shared understanding of success create invitation to external collaborators baseline with respect to success
