In the unprecedented response to the Covid-19 pandemic, trillions in economic stimulus have been made available around the world, while the calls for a recovery that is in alignment with other global challenges, have never been louder. Many see a rare opportunity beyond the pandemic, to build a resilient and low carbon economic recovery.

The paper, The circular economy: a transformative Covid-19 recovery strategy demonstrates how policymakers can pave the way towards such a future. As part of this, ten attractive circular investment opportunities have been identified that spread across five key sectors: built environmentmobilityplastic packagingfashion, and food.
