In the context of the CCRI, a Circular Systemic Solution is a concrete initiative that applies circular economy principles across value chains, sectors, and stakeholders within a specific territory.

These solutions:

• Integrate environmental, economic, and social dimensions;
• Engage multiple actors, including public authorities, businesses/SMEs, research organisations, and civil society;
• Go beyond waste management to tackle production, consumption, governance, and investment challenges;
• Are designed for long-term impact and replication.
