Abstract

This brochure was developed for and in collaboration with the MEHRCE innovation community. We aim to better understand what hinders the packaging transition and where we can take collaborative actions. Through this visual representation, we seek to highlight connections and dynamics. This form of presentation makes it easier to identify strategic points of intervention and to shift one’s own perspective. The Systems Map is of interest to political actors, who can use it to gain an overview of complex, promising, and previously under-recognized leverage points for regulatory approaches. Researchers can also use the Systems Map, with its diverse range of topics, as a starting point for further research on the packaging transition.
