Closing event CE Center
Brussel, Belgium
Results and impact of five years of policy research into the circular economy.
How do you turn data into a lever for better policy? During this closing conference of the CE Center, the focus is on the role of monitoring as a basis for steering the circular transition in Flanders. We do not start with a comprehensive overview of five years of research, but zoom in on the insights that are truly relevant for policy and practice.
You will gain insight into the latest figures from the updated CE Monitor and discover how data and clear objectives contribute to more effective, evidence-based policy.
