Changes in the global economic model for the use of Natural Resources will increase mainly due to reductions on a point scale of about 90 billion USD native resources. It is expected to reach 190 billion USD by 2060. This will lead to a significant increase in carbon dioxide emissions and a reduction in raw materials needed for high technologies. The only way to counter these challenges is to move to a circular economy. Circular economics calls into question the linear system and requires a rethink of the production process, considering the process of recycling goods. It offers significant potential for innovation, employment opportunities, quality of work, and ultimately a more inclusive economy that serves the needs of all people. The role of the educational system in the process of forming a circular economy. The importance of education is emphasized in the transition to a circular economy. The education system is a key player in the transition from a linear to a circular economy, which should begin to guide this transformation. To do this, the education system must first adapt to new requirements by adopting circular economics teaching in classrooms. Secondly, to ensure an effective large-scale transition by developing students’ proper skills and systems thinking. However, circular economics cannot be tied to a single profession or discipline because its success requires dialogue between different actors. This is an inter-social economic model that is needed in the fields of engineering, design, military operations, and business. Therefore, the teaching of circular economics should also be interdisciplinary and cover different areas of Education.
