“BALFIN Group is implementing several initiatives in the framework of circular economy in the sector of tourism, retail, construction, etc. in addition to supporting social and environmental projects that are beneficial to the environment or promote a green economy. We want to raise awareness on this topic through good local examples and educate citizens about the positive impacts of circular economy.

Many countries have already defined their commitments to achieve sustainable development goals by driving more sustainable consumption and production. Companies worldwide are transitioning to a more circular business model and people are changing their consumption habits, driven by local initiatives and consciousness about sustainable living.

Meaningful participation by local governments, private sector, entrepreneurs, citizens and residents is crucial, as is educating the leaders, employees and consumers of the future.
