A critical review of the Circular Flanders partnership was conducted in 2023 at the request of its steering group. The report considered what the partnership has set in motion, what significant changes would not have happened without the Circular Flanders partnership, and what would make the partnership even more powerful.
This report takes stock of what Circular Flanders has achieved and what else it can do to promote the circular economy in very practical terms. It lists the projects and initiatives through which the partnership supports the circular transition.
This report summarises the essential results from reports on the biodiversity/circular economy nexus prepared by members of the ECESP's Leadership Group on Biodiversity and Climate.
Its main premise is that biodiversity loss is not only an essential problem for our societies and human well-being but also a key business risk. The report argues that while the circular economy is a key tool for advancing towards our environmental targets, its implementation must be centred around biodiversity and climate considerations.
Reducing the demand for primary resources and preventing waste and pollution at product design stage are crucial, as are policies and measures to promote biodiversity protection and restoration.
