Session II: Policy options, technological innovations and best practices on circular economy, including elements of supply chain redesign


With the help of a few high-impact selected cases that will have been published on the web, this session and each case study will delve into discussing:


  • What different policy options, technological innovations and best practices on circular economy, including elements of supply chain redesign, are available for different markets and regions to result in emission reductions and sustainable development co-benefits?
  • What can Parties and non-Party stakeholders supporting the Parties learn from these policy options, technological innovations and best practices (such as the enablers and challenges/barriers) for the successful implementation of circular economy, including elements of supply chain redesign, that results in emission reduction and sustainable development co-benefits?
  • How does circular economy, including elements of supply chain redesign, contribute to a just transition of the workforce and the creation of decent work and quality jobs?


This session will help to respond to the key questions of the Talanoa Dialogue: “Where are we?” and “Where we want to be?” with a focus on innovations and best practices on circular economy, including elements of supply chain redesign, for reducing emissions and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
