Synopsis

Circular Economy (CE) principles have gained popularity across policies at all levels of government. These policies have a greater impact when consumers and households respond effectively at the local government level. However, the economic, social, and environmental impacts of CE policies implemented at the local government level are less well known. This project aims to evaluate specific CE policies and behaviour intervention strategies for solid waste management implemented at the local government level.
