The Circular Cities Declaration (CCD) Report 2024, launched at the World Circular Economy Forum 2024 in Brussels, has reviewed the progress and impact of circular economy policies in cities that have signed the CCD. Key findings include the role of circular strategies in nature and biodiversity preservation, climate goals, and building resiliency in urban areas. The report suggests six priority actions for accelerating the circular transition in cities:

  1. Work towards common circular economy metrics
  2. Set more ambitious targets, including on consumption-based emissions
  3. Integrate circular economy approaches across city departments to unlock resources
  4. Create systemic circular solutions
  5. Advocate for a new paradigm
  6. Embed nature into all decision-making processes
