About the project 

CIRCONOMY develops a harmonised framework of micro-level circular economy indicators, delivered through an intuitive digital tool that makes circularity measurable, and actionable for municipalities, industries, SMEs and households. Combining life-cycle thinking, environmental footprint methods, social sciences and digital technology, the framework is co-created and validated through pilot and replication studies across Europe, in alignment with key EU policy instruments such as the Circular Economy Action Plan, the EU Taxonomy and the CSRD.
