How to use it the Circular Canvas :

The Circular Canvas enables you to easily apply systems thinking to your project. The central boxes with plain lines describe the strategic decisions made by the organisation. All these boxes must be filled out (except when the organisation does not use any natural resource).

The design choices have:

• ecosystemic impacts (both positive and negative, to be listed above, in the light blue rows

Not all of these boxes have to be filled out (dotted lines).
