Abstract
With Design for Environment having become a business issue affecting all parts of the value chain, the need for teaching and training of industrial as well as academic and other audiences is clear. At Philips Consumer Electronics and Delft University of Technology a comprehensive set of teaching modules has been developed addressing all relevant aspects of eco-design, including technicalities as well practicalities, ways to improve, experiences with implementation, how to deal with stakeholders, et cetera. The paper gives a broad overview of available teaching material. The importance of how to address the various audiences (designers, managers, students etc.) is also stressed. Based on experiences with teaching applied ecodesign, conditions for successful implementation of ecodesign strategies are formulated.
