Publication type: Report
This report aims at exploring the role of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) in the transition to a circular economy. It is a synthesis of the concepts exposed in a webinar jointly organized by the Global Alliance on Circular Economy and Resource Efficiency (GACERE) and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in June 2022. Firstly, EPR is introduced as a crucial element in the promotion of circular economy. Thereafter, theoretical and practical information regarding the implementation of EPR systems is provided. Finally, some practical cases are described, for the reader to benefit from the lessons learned from each of them and suggested resources are provided for further in-depth analysis of the topic.
