The EIB supports circular economy projects in cities through various financing and advisory programs. From 2013-2017, the largest shares of EIB circular economy lending went to industry/services (33%), water management (26%), and agriculture/bioeconomy (17%). Examples of EIB circular city initiatives include the Green Metropole Fund in Amsterdam and advisory support for Kolding Municipality in Denmark to develop circular economy strategies and projects. The EIB categorizes circular economy projects as circular design/production, circular use/life extension, circular value recovery, and circular support.

They work to reinvigorate recycling through behavior change campaigns, improving food waste capture, and restricting non-recyclable waste. LWARB also accelerates the transition to a circular economy by investing in and supporting businesses, building partnerships, and raising awareness. Their circular business support program helps small circular businesses grow and linear businesses transition through their portfolio of over 150 businesses that have created 30 jobs and launched 20 new products.

International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI)

OECD CFE

This document discusses the circular economy in cities and regions. It notes that a circular economy can benefit society through better resource use, businesses through new markets and cost savings, and the public sector through meeting policy goals and cost efficiency. A circular economy involves activities across the whole value chain from collection and separation to reuse, repair, reprocessing, extraction, and disposal. It notes that national approaches often lack pilots and specific initiatives. Barriers include awareness, resources, and competing demands on cities. The document recommends starting small, finding champions, piloting projects, working with the private sector, and monitoring progress to embed circular approaches over the long term.

OECD

OECD CFE

The document summarizes key points from an OECD survey on circular economies in cities and regions. It finds that while most cities and regions have emerging or in-progress circular economy initiatives, fully adopting circular economies requires a holistic and systemic approach across all sectors of cities. Common tools used by cities include pilots and experimentations, capacity building, sustainable public procurement, and dedicated budgets. Top priorities for cities include overcoming obstacles to transitioning and further developing circular economy plans and policies over the long term through the OECD's circular economy program.

Centre for Circular Economy and Arctic Industry

OECD CFE

This document discusses circular economy initiatives in Lapland, Finland. It notes that Lapland's industries, concentrated in Kemi-Tornio, account for 80% of Lapland's production and over 5 billion euros in exports annually. Industrial symbiosis between these companies is estimated to save 700 million euros annually. The document outlines Lapland's investment potential through 2030, totaling over 13 trillion euros across industries like mining, energy, tourism and infrastructure. It presents the Arctic Smartness concept for developing modern industry clusters through circular economy and sustainable resource use. Lapland's strategic focus on circular economy has been recognized by the EU and other international bodies.

City of Valladolid

OECD CFE

Valladolid is transitioning towards a circular economy with 3000 employees committed. The city signed the Seville Declaration in 2017 to promote circular economy among cities. Valladolid created a roadmap with 5 steps - define approach, make a diagnosis, raise awareness, promote circular businesses, and position the city as circular. It offers subsidies up to 25,000 euros for circular economy projects in areas like training, awareness, research, and new products. Over 50 projects have received funding. Valladolid also hosts a Circular Weekend event and will have a Circular Lab entrepreneurship hub. The city is a case study for the OECD programme on circular economies in cities.

It also aims to encourage cooperation between economic actors, involve academia, coordinate circular actions, and publicize results of projects to transition to a more circular model.

Anne Helbig (City of Groningen, Netherlands)

OECD CFE

The city of Groningen in the Netherlands developed a roadmap for a circular economy from 2018-2020 following its participation in the OECD Circular Economy in Cities and Regions initiative. The roadmap focuses on five focal areas - energy, water, biomass/food, waste, and construction/demolition - and is guided by six principles including enabling residents and businesses to develop circular solutions, acting as a role model, and closing material cycles. An action plan was also created based on OECD recommendations to implement strategies, engage stakeholders, promote training and competition, and facilitate coordination across sectors to transition Groningen to a circular economy.

Glasgow, UK has established a circular economy partnership and committed to becoming a more circular city. It has an existing network of circular businesses and jobs in the circular economy. Glasgow is engaging key business sectors and academia to support the transition and has hosted circular economy events. It is developing a Circular Economy Routemap and has declared a climate emergency with a goal of reaching net zero by 2030. Next steps include finalizing the routemap, sharing lessons with other Scottish cities, and contributing to the COP26 conference in 2020.

Climate-KIC

OECD CFE

The document discusses the social benefits of moving towards a circular economy. It notes that a circular economy could address social challenges like jobs, poverty, and inequality by creating new employment opportunities through labor-intensive reuse, repair, recycling, and services. Studies show a circular economy could reduce carbon emissions by 2/3 and create many local, decentralized jobs while boosting local economies and improving standards of living through increased disposable income and wealth creation. A circular economy also promotes social cohesion through sharing economies and improved environmental quality. While some new jobs may be in waste management, a focus on both human and artificial intelligence could help ensure high quality employment.

Håkon Jenthoft (City of Oslo, Norway)

OECD CFE

The document discusses strategies for transitioning Oslo, Norway to a circular economy by 2030. It outlines goals such as reduced material consumption, green public procurement, and resource management. The city aims to develop a circular economy strategy that supports existing zero-emission targets and involves suppliers, citizens, industry, and other stakeholders. The strategy would also position the greater Oslo region as a metropolitan area committed to sustainability.

European Commission

OECD CFE

Circular economy initiatives are well-suited for implementation at the regional and urban levels for several reasons: 1) Regional value chains often involve heavy/bulky or low-value materials and products, and make use of region-specific resources. 2) There is a high density of economic actors within regions that can more easily collaborate in circular systems. 3) Regional authorities can help de-risk circular economy projects by providing local financial incentives, creating markets through public procurement, facilitating collaboration between actors, and establishing a public operator to connect different parts of the value chain.

Eveline Jonkhoff (City of Amsterdam)

OECD CFE

The City of Amsterdam has ambitious goals to become more circular and sustainable, aiming for a 50% reduction in primary resource use by 2030 and to be fully circular and climate neutral by 2050. To achieve these goals, Amsterdam has been implementing circular economy programs since 2015, conducting research on value chains and funding over 70 projects in 2016 and over 116 projects in 2019. On April 8th, Amsterdam will publish updated plans that translate value chains into specific ambitions and actions, drawing from lessons learned through over 200 related circular economy projects within the city. The city is also developing a "City Doughnut" framework to assess progress from multiple perspectives.

Rosa Huertas Gonzalez (City of Valladolid, Spain)

OECD CFE

Valladolid, Spain has been working to transition to a circular economy through various policies and initiatives since 2015. Key drivers included the EU Circular Economy Action Plan, declarations of commitment from Spanish cities, and reports on the circular economy in Spain. Valladolid developed a roadmap in 2017 and provided subsidies to support the circular economy.

Oriana Romano (OECD)

OECD CFE

This document discusses the circular economy in cities and regions. It provides an overview of a survey of 43 cities and 3 regions on their circular economy initiatives. The top drivers for cities transitioning to a circular economy are climate change and creating new business models. Cities' initiatives mainly focus on waste management and pilot projects. The main obstacles are lack of coordination across levels of government and private sector engagement. A checklist is proposed to help cities develop circular economy visions and transition strategies.

Janet Ågren (City of Umeå, Sweden)

OECD CFE

Umeå, Sweden has a vision of growing to 200,000 inhabitants by 2050 in a sustainable way that considers social, ecological, economic and cultural factors. Over 120 stakeholders participated in an OECD study on how Umeå can transition to a circular economy. Umeå aims to become a logistic hub in the region and develop a circular and sustainable food system, while integrating social sustainability into its climate action and circular economy plans. The OECD recommends Umeå facilitate coordination among initiatives, promote circular practices to businesses and organizations, and enable circular procurement and policies to transition the city.

Bernie Kiely (Ireland)

OECD CFE

Ireland is participating in an OECD project on circular economies in cities and regions. The circular economy is not widely recognized in mainstream Irish policy and sectors currently. Some initiatives exist like the Rediscovery Centre, a reuse social enterprise, and Circuléire, a public-private partnership developing circular economy projects. Ireland's participation in 2020 coincides with a review of national waste policy and development of a circular economy strategy. The OECD project will provide insight and recommendations to Ireland through interviews in March 2020.

The plan includes 35 actions organized under regulations/legislation, financial tools/incentives, knowledge/expertise, and governance. It establishes a timetable, dialogue process, indicators, and interministerial committee to support circular economy goals. One initiative discussed is supporting "energy communities" through a new law. The plan aims to make circular economy a key part of Greece's strategy for exiting its long period of economic crisis.

The OECD Blue Cities Project

OECD CFE

The OECD Blue Cities Project aims to build a sustainable blue economy in cities through an integrated risk-informed and climate-smart (RISC-proof) approach. Coastal cities face risks from sea level rise and water pollution that threaten jobs and economic growth reliant on ocean resources. The traditional approach to the blue economy lacks a local perspective. The project will take a systemic, territorial approach linking water management to local economic development and climate change adaptation through good water governance, sharing knowledge between cities, and measuring project outcomes over multiple phases of research, implementation and result sharing by 2023.

CSCP - City for one Planet Living by Michael Kuhndt

Global Infrastructure Basel Foundation

The document discusses enabling more sustainable cities through promoting sharing economies and one planet lifestyles. It provides examples of how cities can integrate sharing initiatives in areas like transportation, food, goods, housing and working. Partnerships between cities, businesses, and citizens are important to enhance sharing opportunities. A pathway is outlined that involves assessing status quo, mapping opportunities, visioning a one planet city, setting targets, stakeholder involvement, and evaluating impacts. The goal is to catalyze sustainable lifestyles and systems through city-level initiatives that create value rather than just mitigate risks.

OECD CFE

FDI and Superstar Spillovers: Evidence from Firm-to-Firm Transactions Mary AMITI (FED New York, United States) Despite competition concerns over the increasing dominance of global corporations, many argue that productivity spillovers from multinationals to domestic firms justify pro-FDI policies. For the first time, we use firm-to-firm transaction data in a developed country to examine the impact of forming a new relationship with a multinational, and find a TFP increase of about 8% three or more years after the event. Sales to other buyers, trade and customer quality also increase. However, we also document that starting to supply other “superstar firms” such as those who heavily export or are very large also increases performance by similar amounts, even if the superstar is a non-multinational. Placebos on starting relationships with smaller firms and novel identification strategies relying solely on demand shocks to superstar firms support a causal interpretation. In addition to productivity spillovers, we document the transmission of “relationship capabilities” and “dating agency” effects as the increase in new buyers is particularly strong within the superstar firm’s existing network. These results suggest an important role for raising productivity through the supply chains of superstar firms regardless of their multinational status. Find out more at https://oe.cd/spl-mtg

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level - A...

OECD CFE

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level Alessandro ALASIA, Dennis HUYNH (Statistics Canada) In Canada, there is limited analysis on industry locations at the neighbourhood level; location and co-location of industries have been assessed primarily at the regional scale which results in an information gap for businesses. Recent evidence suggests that businesses do not just choose a city for their location, they choose specific business districts within a metropolitan area. Recent improvements in the geolocation of business microdata allow to address the information gap. This work, undertaken as part of the Business Data Lab and in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, is a first attempt to map industry locations at the neighbourhood level in major metropolitan areas of Canada. Using establishment-level microdata from the Business Register, we apply spatial kernel density estimations to identify neighbourhoods with high employment/revenue density for selected industries (2-digit NAICS) and industry clusters (grouping of 6-digits NAICS). The geographic delineation of business districts within metropolitan areas is the first step in understanding the evolution of industry location and co-location over time, and assessing local business dynamics at the neighbourhood level. Ultimately, these business districts can be analyzed in combination with additional data sources (e.g., mobility and road traffic) to derive further economic insights.

Democratizing data through innovative data governance and visualizations Patrick GILL, Stephen TAPP (Chambers of Commerce, Canada) Small organizations in Canada struggle with accessing and leveraging data on business conditions and trends. These organizations have expressed difficulty in knowing what is available, accessing it and converting this information into actionable insights. To empower small organizations with more business-related information and insights, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce has built a suite of free tools that merge and visualize traditional statistics with powerful high-frequency data sets (e.g. payments and mobility). This work is enabled by innovate data governance (e.g. a data trust) and a collaborative partnership with Statistics Canada. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is continuing work with Statistics Canada to release more local business information available through the agency’s Business Register (e.g. the mapping of local business districts), and is exploring how Generative AI can support small organizations’ navigation and understanding of the business information it has curated.

Horizon 2020 - research networks across borders - Rupert Kawka

OECD CFE

Involvement of rural regions in European research networks Rupert KAWKA, Torsten SCHUNDER (Federal Office for Building and regional Planning, Germany) This study investigates the distribution of the European Union's Horizon 2020 funding programme on rural and urban regions between 2014 and 2020 and the resulting urban-rural links. Leveraging the Horizon 2020-database covering the 2014-20 programming period, which encompasses data on approximately 35,000 funded projects involving nearly 180,000 partners, the paper explores the participation of rural firms and organisations in the broader European research framework. By integrating the urban-rural classification of NUTS 3 regions, the research addresses key questions concerning the involvement of rural regions in Horizon 2020 projects, the structural differences in projects with and without rural participation, and the dynamics of urban-rural collaboration in research. The study further aims to identify potential clusters of rural innovation hubs across Europe and assess spatial disparities. Find out more at https://oe.cd/spl-mtg

How can the social and solidarity economy help refugees along their journey?

OECD CFE

Forcibly displaced people fleeing violent conflict and other forms of persecution find support from the social and solidarity economy (SSE) along their pathways, from their country of origin to asylum protection. The numbers are growing and new OECD work sheds light on how the specific values and characteristics of SSE entities provide high-quality responses to refugee needs and facilitate integration in host communities. The SSE can support access to rights, empowerment, social and labour market inclusion of refugees. Join this webinar with the UNHCR, SINGA and NESsT Poland to discover how the SSE plays a role in the steps along the way of refugee’s journey.

Platform cooperatives Webinar ppt
