Abstract

This study explores diverse circular economies and methods of multispecies ethnography in Vorselaar, Belgium and Røros, Norway, to identify care-full justice in small-scale places and to challenge traditional anthropocentric and capitalocentric models. This study unearths circular site stories in Vorselaar’s community-driven sustainability practices and Røros’s integration of cultural heritage in its sustainability approach, highlighting the need for a broader, care-centric perspective in circular economy discourse. The results demonstrate the universality and adaptability of diverse circular economies in fostering narratives of multispecies justice and the need for emphasising multispecies justice and bioregionalism to foster biodiversity, human wellbeing and their need for belonging and ecological citizenship.
