Abstract / Keywords

To the Point

  • There is increasing research and discussion about
    circularity and the circular economy. However, global
    implementation is declining.
  • At the municipal level, there are various approaches
    to implement a circular economy: from Circular to Zero
    Waste to Fab Cities.
  • The differences among the three approaches lie in
    their spatial distribution, goals, admission criteria, and
    monitoring.
  • While Circular Cities and Zero Waste Cities already
    have binding monitoring approaches in place, these
    are still lacking for Fab Cities.
  • The ERDF project "FAB.Region Bergisches
    Städtedreieck" is driving transformation processes to-
    wards a co-creative, sustainable circular economy as
    Germany’s first Fab Region.
