Europe aims to double recycled material use by 2030 under the 2020 Circular Economy Action Plan, but progress is slow and uneven across member states; key barriers include skills gaps, shifting targets, and funding constraints. The Erasmus+-funded Become project fosters circular skills in Finland, Netherlands, Slovenia, and Bulgaria through training and local learning communities to support this transition.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Circular Economy.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
You face a widening skills gap as Europe shifts policy to enforce circular economy goals, creating demand for training and consulting in circular practices. Align your offer to emerging European programmes like Erasmus+ Become for early market access and funding routes.
