Topic and description: This talk demonstrates how solving complex challenges, such as achieving circular economy, requires a truly interdisciplinary approach, rooted in my work on the NCN SONATA “MoSAic” project. My research shows how various domains meet by assessing the cost-benefit and profitability analyses to ensure their financial viability. These perspectives from Social Science help in creating holistic solutions that are not just technically sound but also economically practical and socially acceptable.
