Goa is 1st State in India to develop a Circular Economy and Resource Efficiency Strategy
Circlewallas is proud to have been involved in the creation of India’s first state circular economy strategy, supported by the EU as part of the EU-India Resource Efficiency initiative, and drafted by TERI.
In April 2019 Circlewallas used participatory leadership to facilitate stakeholder inputs for the strategy, focusing on barriers and opportunities for greater circulation of resources in the Tourism and Construction Industries, Waste management and Marine Litter as key priority.
On February 24th 2020 the strategy was released by the Chief Minister of Goa. A Proud moment for Goa being the first of the 3 pilot states to do so (Telangana, Orissa are the other states chosen to pilot circularity)
