Accelerating Zambia's Transition to a Green and Circular Economy
Zambia’s hub for learning, inspiring and connecting towards a more regenerative way of operating — where materials and products circulate, waste becomes a resource and partnerships unlock new value.
Better for Zambia
The Circular Economy Framework Unlocks Value and Enables Green Growth
So much more than recycling. In a circular system waste is avoided and products and materials are reused, repaired, refurbished and remanufactured. Such a system is regenerative and guided by 3 main principles:
Eliminate waste and pollution
Keep materials and products in circulation
Regenerate nature
Better for you
How the Circular Economy can Benefit You
Reduce Costs
Applying circular strategies will save on inputs, operations, process, and waste disposal.
Eliminate Waste
Looking at waste as a resource benefits the environment, creates opportunities for trade and improves your bottom line.
Improve Efficiency
Do more with less by circulating materials, energy and water resources your business will run smoother.
