This strategic plan is about making the circular economy in Wales a reality.
The Welsh Government set out their commitment to use the powers and levers available to them to accelerate the transition to a circular, low-carbon economy. Wales is already doing well in terms of recycling, but further efforts are needed. The strategy recognises that resource use is key, and states that a circular economy is a critical element of a green and just recovery because it will reduce consumption and prevent waste.
The strategy lists 8 headline actions for delivering a circular economy in Wales, from helping Welsh businesses reduce their carbon footprint by becoming more resource efficient to phasing out unnecessary single-use items, especially plastic.
Wales (Cymru in Welsh) will be hosting the 2024 European Circular Economy Hotspot: Circular Economy Hotspot Cymru in Cardiff on 7 - 9 October.

Participants will be able to engage with Welsh projects across industry, business, public bodies, academia, and towns and cities.
There will be global circular economy innovators, leaders and thinkers, so it's a good chance to forge links and network.
