WCEF2025 Accelerator Session: Scaling circular economy for Just Transition
How might circular economy strategies accelerate the just transition? Our WCEF session will be Friday 16th May - register here
We're delighted to announce our upcoming Accelerator Session at the World Circular Economy Forum 2025, exploring the transformative role of circular economy strategies in advancing a just transition, with a strong focus on EU-funded initiatives and Brazil as a key partner. It will showcase collaborative efforts in integrating bio-based solutions or enhancing resource efficiency across key sectors such as energy, agri-food systems, and industry.
The discussion will highlight policies, financing mechanisms, and innovation ecosystems that support local actors, ensuring inclusive participation so the transition is fair and equitable.
The session will also build on findings from national circularity roadmaps, addressing financial and trade enablers for circular solutions and global governance gaps. Practical case studies will illustrate how circular practices—from recycling and remanufacturing to waste recovery—can drive economic competitiveness, environmental sustainability, and social equity.
Stakeholders from policy, business, and civil society will contribute to identifying scalable models that align with global environmental and development goals. The session will facilitate exchange between EU, Brazilian, and Latin American actors, supporting high-level adoption of circularity principles in post-2030 global frameworks and increased ambition ahead of COP30.
