Time Session
9:30am
10:40am
In the face of climate crisis and resource challenges, circular economy is gradually becoming the core strategy for policy development in various countries. This session will discuss the experience of different countries in making their "Circular Economy Roadmaps", with a particular focus on the Asia-Pacific region. It will explore how countries can move beyond a waste management and recycling-oriented mindset toward a systemic transformation covering design, manufacturing, consumption, and reuse, and how to develop circular strategies that are locally adaptable to diverse industries and cultural contexts. Taiwan will also present the latest draft of the "Circular Economy Roadmap" and invite international partners to share their experiences and provide feedback.
