Switzerland – Event services – Implementation of an educational center and operational support / Submission No.: 2026-16

Opportunity description

Entsorgung + Recycling Zürich (ERZ) would like to create a new, interactive educational center focusing on the topics of the circular economy and water protection at the Hagenholz site. The educational center (working title) is intended to demonstrate and make tangible what ERZ as a whole does for the City of Zurich and, in particular, in the areas of the environment, the circular economy and water protection. The focus is to be on providing visitors with practical knowledge and encouraging behavioral changes in the areas of waste / the circular economy and water protection. The preliminary concept envisages an interactive, modern and modularly adaptable educational center. One part of the educational center (ground floor) is to be designed as a city walk. It will showcase ERZ's wide range of services for a livable Zurich and impart knowledge about the circular economy, rainwater management and water protection. The second part (upper floor) guides visitors through an exemplary apartment in the City of Zurich and shows what scope for action the visitors themselves have to contribute to a livable Zurich. This ensures that knowledge is transferred to the visitors' lived reality and thus also promotes a potential change in everyday behavior. The concept is designed to be modular; stations on the city walk and in the apartment can be adapted or replaced as needed. Information about current ERZ projects can be updated easily and quickly. The stations are self-explanatory; no guided tour is required. Virtual persons («Companions») accompany visitors through the exhibition. The exhibition will be implemented in existing premises at the Hagenholz site. The current fixtures, certain walls and floor structures need to be dismantled, the entrance needs to be modified, and new railings are required so that the premises are available in the form required for the interior construction of the exhibition. This dismantling is not part of this submission, but will be planned and carried out by an architectural firm commissioned by ERZ, which will also obtain the building permit. Procedure: open.
