Preface

We are very proud to introduce the results of an 18-month policy dialogue with 50+ stakeholders to shape a vision and strategy for a circular economy in the city of Valladolid, Spain as part of the OECD Programme on the Circular Economy in Cities and Regions.

In the face of megatrends such as population growth in cities, urbanisation and climate change, the transition to a circular economy is becoming an imperative for cities of all sizes to reduce the pressure on natural resources, while addressing new infrastructure, services and housing needs, and boosting economic growth and environmental quality. Cities and regions are at the core of citizen well-being, in areas such as transport, solid waste, water or energy.

Moving from a take-make-dispose linear system to one in which resource waste is prevented, implies going beyond solely technical aspects and ensure governance and economic conditions are met. For the circular economy to materialise, policies need to be aligned, stakeholders engaged, and legal and regulatory frameworks enabling innovation.

This report summarises important milestones achieved so far. Its analytical framework puts People, Firms and Places at the centre of the shift towards a circular economy. It puts forward bold recommendations and concrete actions for Valladolid to act as promoter, facilitator and enabler of this transition. This requires political leadership and commitment towards the transition to sustainable pathways, as well as multi-stakeholder and multi-sectoral approaches, and new business models.

An important part of the work was the bottom-up and inclusive policy dialogue, whereby each stakeholder could share experience, listen and learn from each other, and benefit from expertise and guidance from peer cities and the OECD team.

While we are aware that we are just at the beginning of the transition from a linear to a circular economy in Valladolid, the city is committed to implement these recommendations and raise their profile within our community and globally. The OECD Centre for Entrepreneurship, SMEs, Regions and Cities stands ready to support Valladolid with this endeavour. This will be all the more relevant in the aftermath of the COVID-19 crisis, when cities and regions will be urged to reconsider the link between environment and health, reflect on the de-materialisation of the economy and society and on circular resources loops in response to the hyper-globalisation of the recent years. The OECD Programme on the Circular Economy in Cities and Regions will seek further opportunities, evidence and recommendations to make the circular economy part of the solution towards healthier, less resource wasteful and environmental aware societies.

Foreword

The circular economy is about preventing wasted resources through reusing materials, improving design to increase the durability of goods and products, and transforming waste.

Population growth, climate change and urbanisation are likely to increase the pressure on natural resources, as well as the demand for new infrastructure, services and housing. By 2050, the global population will reach 9 billion people, 70% of which will be living in cities. Cities represent almost two-thirds of global energy demand, produce up to 80% of greenhouse gas emissions and 50% of global waste.

Cities and regions play a fundamental role in shifting from a linear to a circular economy, as they are responsible for key decisions in local public services such as transport, solid waste, water and energy that affect citizens well-being, economic growth and environmental quality. In cities and regions, the circular economy should ensure that:

  • services (e.g. from water to waste and energy) are provided while preventing waste generation, making efficient use of natural resources as primary materials, optimising their reuse and allowing synergies across sectors;

  • economic activities are planned and executed in a way to close, slow and narrow loops across value chains, and;

  • infrastructure is designed and built to avoid linear locks-in, which use resources intensively and inefficiently.

The OECD Programme on the Circular Economy in Cities and Regions was designed to support national and subnational governments in their transition towards the circular economy through evidence-based analysis, multi-stakeholder dialogues, tailored recommendations and customised action plans. The Programme relies on a consortium of cities and countries engaged in peer-to-peer dialogues and knowledge sharing activities, including Glasgow (United Kingdom), Granada (Spain), Groningen (Netherlands), Ume (Sweden), Valladolid (Spain) and Ireland.
