Indicators for a Circular Economy in Cities - Supporting the Urban Agenda

Develop a set of indicators to measure city performance in transitioning towards a Circular Economy. The process involves workshops, feedback sessions, and collaborations to identify and finalize a shortlist of relevant indicators. The initiative aims to create a practical toolkit with a strong theoretical base, incorporating insights from existing projects and frameworks. Participants from various sectors contribute ideas to streamline the list, strengthen the framework, and enhance monitoring mechanisms. The final document will provide a clear typology of indicators and a user-friendly monitoring framework for cities.
