She is currently Director of the Share Reuse Repair Initiative (SRRI), a Canadian non-profit working to create a circular economy that is a meaningful waste and climate solution, enables everyone to “live circular" and fosters resilient local economies and communities.</p><p>SRRI actively supports the development of new models of sharing, reuse and repair and is fostering a more just circular economy through the Network for Inclusive Circular Employment and Squaring the Circle Public Dialogues. SRRI was also one of the first global members of Sitra's SHIFT 1.5 community, adapting and developing new tools including: the SHIFT Program to cultivate circular behaviours and the Stuff in Flux 2 Circular Innovation Playbook. Since 2013, Rosemary has enjoyed learning from and with the next generation of circular leaders as Circular Economy part-time Faculty at the BCIT School of Business.<br></p></div>
