The Victorian government has already committed to a large-scale transition towards a Circular Economy (CE) by 2030. At present, it is unclear how to accomplish this systemic shift or accelerate the process. This talk will discuss the potential of the Circular Economy Theory of Change (ToC) as a tool for charting implementation pathways towards a more sustainable and circular economy. Attendees will gain insights into how the CE ToC can be used to guide stakeholder action, measure progress towards CE goals, and develop bespoke CE roadmaps for businesses.
