Resourceful Cities was an URBACT Action Planning Network of nine European cities. The project sought to develop the next generation of urban resource centres. These resource centres see waste as a source of raw materials, thus acting as catalysts for the local circular economy.
The EU-funded 3R Connect project has established a common roadmap based on the existing strategies of the regions of Flanders, Greater Copenhagen and Northern Portugal. The goal is to accelerate circular transformation within the plastics, textiles and construction sectors.
The completed project has produced three comprehensive Joint Action Plans for Circular Economy in Plastics, Construction, and Textiles. These action plans are the culmination of an initiative that pooled input from over 200 private, public and research actors. Through their collective expertise, 3R Connect identified actionable strategies to accelerate the transition to a circular economy in Europe.
The action plans can be used by other regions: for instance, they can identify partners and join specific actions.
FEAD, the European Waste Management Association and CAObH, the Czech Circular Economy Association, will be holding an in-person conference in Prague on 31 October. It will bring together industry leaders, policy makers and experts to discuss key topics in the waste sector, including energy, recycling, climate and economy, and water.
