European Week of Regions and Cities

Scaling up circular and sustainable procurement through interregional collaboration

This session will demonstrate the benefit and necessity of collaborating and learning with peers. Developing and stimulating circular and sustainable procurement in your region or city goes faster and further in collaboration and exchange with peer regions and cities. The Urban Agenda and C-PRONE are two typical networks that, each in their own way, connect cities, regions and projects to facilitate exchange. To illustrate, EU funded projects—Circular Shift, CISUTAC and CE-PRINCE—will showcase what interregional collaboration can bring forth and what sustainable impact regions and cities can make.

Session summary

We learned about three different projects from different funding programmes, but the common element is that each one benefits from sharing knowledge and lessons learned. CE-PRINCE could be replicated across different sectors and areas. CISUTAC shows insights that are very interesting for Circular Shift. Exchange knowledge between public authorities and economic operators is key. The Urban Agenda and C-PRONE networks are key platforms to build these relationships, inspire stakeholders, and share knowledge about circularity.
