Ethiopia has launched today a National Circular Economy Roadmap to unleash the country’s full potential of the circular economy through creating an enabling environment.
The circular economy is a model of production and consumption, which involves sharing, leasing, reusing, repairing, refurbishing and recycling existing materials and products as long as possible.
Circular Economy Roadmaps are a strategic tool for promoting comprehensive change in developing countries towards a circular economy through concrete and practical solutions tailored to the countries’ unique context that allow them to transition from a linear to a circular economic model.
They contain a vision as well as goals and tangible action points that support them in adopting and implementing circular economy solutions.
The Environmental Authority of Ethiopia has today launched Ethiopia’s Circular Economy Roadmap in collaboration with African Development Bank, Embassy of Finland, Africa Circular Economy Facility and African Circular Economy Alliance in Addis Ababa.
The kickoff of the project in Ethiopia aligns the country with Benin, Cameroon, Chad, and Uganda in adopting Circular Economy principles to address developmental challenges.
National Circular Economy Roadmap (NCER) project will be financed by the African Development Bank and Embassy of Finland in Ethiopia with technical support by African Circular Economy Alliance (ACEA).
