The Danish Ministry of Environment and Food, in collaboration with the Danish Ministry of Industry, Business and Financial Affairs published its Strategy for Circular Economy in 2018, based upon recommendations by an advisory board. The strategy’s implementation will occur over a four year period, until 2022. The thematic focus spans six areas: strengthening enterprise and business as a key driver of the circular transition, supporting the circular transition through data and digitalisation, promoting circular design, changing consumption patterns among the public, improving waste management and creating a proper market for waste/recycled materials, and increasing the value of buildings and biomass. The document also highlights the economic benefits enterprises will enjoy from the adoption of circular principles, as well as the targeted environmental benefits.
