The European Commission requested the EEA to produce EU country profiles that offer an updated view of the following elements: what circular economy policies are being implemented at a national level with a particular focus on elements that go beyond EU mandatory elements, and what are best practices with a focus on policy innovation.
These 2024 CE country profiles are an update of the 2022 ones and based on the responses of 29 countries to the survey questions and guidelines that were launched in March 2024. The information in the countries’ responses was again reviewed and edited by the European Topic Centre on Circular economy and resource use. A selection of Eurostat data was made to further complement these country profiles.
The main objectives of these assessments and its updates are to:
stimulate exchange of information and share good practice examples among country experts;
support policymakers in Eionet countries, the European institutions and international organisations by providing an updated catalogue of circular economy actions being undertaken in European countries.
This circular economy country profile is based on information reported by the Eionet network and, in particular, the Eionet Group members on Resource Efficiency and Circular Economy in the second quarter of 2024. Proposals for the further development or amendment of policies represent the view of the reporting country. For Belgium, all input for Flanders was provided by the public waste agency of Flanders (OVAM) and Circular Flanders and for the Walloon Region by the Walloon public service Agriculture, natural resources and environment and the Circular Wallonia coordination unit. The information was reviewed and edited by the European Topic Centre on Circular economy and resource use. A selection of Eurostat data was made to further complement this country profile.
