The circular economycircular economyA systems solution framework that tackles global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution. It is based on three principles, driven by design: eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials (at their highest value), and regenerate nature. concept continues to gain traction as a critical framework for cities to utilise to meet their climate ambitions and to create thriving places for their citizens to live. As understanding of the potential of the idea has grown, so has the demand for tools and guidance on how city-level policymakers might apply it.

Join this live edition of the Circular Economy Show to hear from the organisations behind these tools - ICLEI, Circle Economy and Metabolic - and to hear from representatives from cities at different stages on their circular economy journeys.
