Project results presented at local events to engage policy makers and promote citizens’ participation
Over the past summer and autumn, the partners of the CircleMED project presented the project’s key outputs and results to relevant stakeholders through a series of local events held in their respective territories.
Two main documents were at the heart of these activities:
- “Guidelines for local public support and citizens’ participation”: a set of strategic lines designed to engage and incentivise citizens’ participation and to build consumer acceptance of models based on reducing, reusing, repairing and recycling.
- “Capitalisation plan for circular sustainability”: a document providing clear and precise policy recommendations for embedding the circular economy into national, regional and local regulation.
To make the materials more accessible, both documents were condensed into concise, notebook-style versions created specifically for dissemination purposes. They were also translated into local languages, in order to facilitate their uptake among policy makers.
Through these events, CircleMED partners aim to strengthen dialogue with local institutions and stakeholders and to support the concrete deployment of circular economy practices in their territories.
