The CCRI hands-on online workshops will focus on a key implementation challenge identified in the CCRI communities of practice. They will translate those insights into practical tools, methods and examples that participants can apply in their own context.
This session will focus on how planning can support the reuse of existing assets, limit land take, reserve space for circular activities and create the right conditions for circular design and material use in new developments.

Cities and regions across Europe are facing similar challenges - at different stages and in different contexts - when implementing the circular transition. Over the past year, CCRI communities of practice have brought practitioners together to openly share what works, what doesn’t, and where they get stuck.
