Webinar: Circular economy policies for a just transition
15 May 2025
All communities deserve access to a well-functioning circular economy. However, good local services for recycling and reuse can look very different depending on the context. Policymakers need to manage the tension between raising the bar for all, and supporting what works best locally.
Understanding local needs and capabilities, and designing policy around them, is part of a just transition to a circular economy. To illustrate this, our panel will discuss the challenges and opportunities faced in two extremes: rural and remote areas such as the Highlands and island communities, and the UK’s dense urban centres.
Watch back the webinar to find out more about how targeted approaches can address the diverse needs of different communities, leading to a fairer and more sustainable future.
