What can the EU do?

1. Integration of the Climate Change Agenda with the circular economy packages. Circular economy can provide help to reach CO2 reduction.

2. Finding partners to create a useful network of Living Lab regions across Europe

3. EU regulation needs to be adapted to the circular challenge

4. Funding should be made more flexible and open to locally driven initiatives, such as the Living Lab concept
