The Basque Country feels very strongly about the circular economy. One initiative they've adopted to promote it is the Zirkularrak website promoting locally made circular products.
In a circular economy, solutions are often spread across the entire value chain. Moving ahead with them requires knowledge of the circular economy and the skills to turn that knowledge into action to initiate change within organisations.
The Circular Ambassador Programme was set up to shape ambitious professionals into Circular Ambassadors. This session will focus on training future trainers.
In a circular economy, solutions are often spread across the entire value chain: moving ahead with them requires a combination of collaboration, sustainable (product) design, circular business models and processes and the ability to convince others that this whole complex process is necessary. This demands knowledge of the circular economy and the skills to turn that knowledge into action to initiate change within organisations.
The Circular Ambassador Programme was set up to shape ambitious professionals into Circular Ambassadors. This session will focus on training future trainers.

This CEPS In-Depth Analysis examines the role, state of play and future prospects of standardisation of critical raw materials (CRM) from an EU perspective.
It begins with an overview of the key benefits and actors in both the EU and global technical standardisation system.
It then maps key recent developments and initiatives in CRM standardisation, in the EU and globally. Drawing on consultations with experts, it identifies three fundamental risks and challenges: the limited participation of EU stakeholders and experts, specific content gaps in recycling and traceability, and a highly fragmented ESG standardisation landscape.
Lastly, it provides policy recommendations to help address these challenges and enhance the EU’s role in CRM standardisation.
