This presentation introduces the ISO framework for transitioning to a circular economy through the ISO 59000 family of standards. It outlines the global context of resource depletion and environmental degradation caused by the linear economy. The circular economy model proposed emphasizes systemic change, resource traceability, and ecosystem resilience.
The presentation highlights practical actions across the value chain to retain, recover, and regenerate value, supporting the SDGs. It also introduces a resource management hierarchy to guide decision-making. These tools aim to help stakeholders across sectors implement circularity effectively and measurably.
