Seneca Impact Advisors was proud to support the Vietnam Circular Economy in Action Conference 2024, presented by CL2B. The Conference concluded with a resounding call for continuous action. Over the course of three insightful sessions, experts, policymakers, and industry leaders convened to discuss the pressing challenges and opportunities for a circular economy transition in Vietnam.
Here are some key takeaways from the discussions presented by CL2B:
Localization Matters: The global push for more sustainable lifestyles and a circular economy requires a deep understanding of local contexts, particularly in developing and emerging economies. Recognizing the unique values and informal economies that shape these regions is essential for a successful transition.
The Urgency for Circularity: The discussions highlighted that our planetary boundaries are in crisis, and we are at a crossroads. The question posed was, “If not a circular economy, then what? If a circular economy, then how?”
Continuous Action from the Ecosystem: There is significant work ahead to create a robust circular economy ecosystem. From businesses to governments to consumers, every action, no matter how small, can contribute towards a more just transition.
