The Circular Economy Competence Framework for Young People is the outcome of research by the Circular Economy-Sustainable Competences for Youth (CESCY) project team. The project has identified the competences that young people need when adopting a circular economy approach.

The CESCY team has consulted companies and stakeholders at local and national levels to identify the competences young people are expected to have to work in the CE field. The team has also consulted young people and youth workers to assess whether they are familiar with these competences.

This competence framework is the fourth intellectual output of the CESCY project. It is accompanied by a Manual for practitioners to work with the competence framework.
