Circular Built Environment Roadmap
I was delighted to represent the ATU Build360 research group at the IGBC facilitated workshop in Limerick today. The CircularBuild project is a collaboration between the IGBC, ATU, TU Dublin, and the University of Galway. The aim is to co-design and develop a national roadmap for a circular built environment in close collaboration with industry.

Reimagining the Waste Framework Directive
This 2023 Whitepaper by Eunomia explores an EU Regulatory Framework for a Circular Economy consistent with 1.5 degrees. A recast of the framework as a Resources Framework Directive is recommended to guide the continued reduction in material consumption across the EU economy in a way that most effectively and efficiently delivers decarbonization, as well as
How to procure circular?
This report contains lessons learned from more than 30 circular procurement pilot projects and other activities performed within the Interreg NSR project ProCirc (2018- 2023). The report has been developed by Bax and Company based on an analysis of pilot case studies and interviews with piloting organizations conducted during 2021-2022.
Our Shared Understanding
