“Circular Cities Week” is an annual, decentralized global event. During the week, CEC City Organizers in more than 100 cities will organize workshops to identify opportunities and next steps to encourage implementation of the circular economy in their cities. This process will include bringing in stakeholders from city governments, private and nonprofit sectors, and academia—and providing a multi-stakeholder call to action.
The objectives of the week are twofold:
• Convince and support city governments to publish a local circular economy strategy plan with clear goals for their city
• Create an open-source report of challenges, opportunities and next steps for all the participating citiesWho is the event for?
