Abstract
The circular economy model aims to reduce resource requirements, redesign waste handling, and reshape the economy by promoting sustainable resource management, dissociating economic activity from finite resource exploitation, and preserving natural resources for future generations. Most notably, the relevance of the circular economy has been incorporated into several of the Sustainable Development Goals in the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations. Aligning circular economy practices with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) can promote sustainable development and a more equitable future. Research on supporting SDGs informs policy and decision-making, guiding the development of innovative technologies and business models for a circular economy.
