Friesland in Action - The regional transition program¶

To accelerate the circular transition, Friesland has developed a regional transition program and is focusing on reaching certain circular tipping points and key sectors known as circular clusters— areas that are of significant economic importance and can drive the most substantial impact on the region’s transition to a circular economy. These sectors, such as construction, agriculture, water(technology) and tourism, present unique opportunities for reducing resource consumption, minimizing waste, and fostering innovation.

Circular Friesland and its members are leading several programs and projects aimed at these tipping points and clusters. By bringing together businesses, governments, and knowledge institutions, Circular Friesland is driving collaboration and developing circular solutions in these critical areas. This chapter will explore how Friesland is leveraging these opportunities to make the most significant impact on its circular transition.
