Our Role in the Circular Economy
Role of Governments & Institutions
How can Governments & Institutions help create the right conditions for the circular economy to thrive? Governments can set in place regulations where appropriate, and be active drivers of innovation and investment in the circular economy. Institutions also need to set the right framework that delivers progressive change throughout the value chain.

Facts in numbers
There is an urgent need to refocus our growth and development trajectory towards initiatives that will accelerate profitable and equitable growth while galvanizing local actions and develop hacks that encourage local innovation. Key to this green trajectory is sustainable consumption and production practices which drives the economy.
As at 2013; The consumer goods industry accounted for 75 percent of global solid waste. The sector takes in approximately USD 3 trillion worth of materials.
Projecting to 2050; about 60 percent of plastics demand could be covered by production based on used plastics.
