Advancing a Just Transition to a Circular Economy: Scaling up Individual Action to Collectively Drive Systemic Change

A transition to a circular economy can help address plastic, electronic, and textile waste. But how do we ensure the transition is also just and inclusive?

Plastic, electronic, and textile waste volumes have led to environmental, social, and health issues, especially in low- and middle-income countries. A transition to a circular economy is necessary to address these challenges, but it needs to be just and inclusive in order to guarantee dignity, security, and equal opportunity for all. This session is a unique opportunity to get inspired about a brand new ILO-PACE initiative and a call for collaboration on the way forward.
