Cities are paving the way when it comes to the transition for circular economy, creating networks, and developing leading circular economy solutions. ICLEI Europe encourages cities to collaborate together for these innovative solutions and to seek out opportunities to further support.

If you represent a competent authority of an EU territory (either a city, region, or territorial cluster), this is your chance to lead Europe’s circular economy transition. The Circular Cities and Regions Initiative (CCRI) is now accepting applications to become a CCRI Pilot or Fellow!

These roles will provide opportunities to build capacity, expand your networks, collaborate with other stakeholders, access and exchange information and knowledge, and increase the visibility of your territory and its activities.

Pilots will work closely with the CCRI Coordination and Support Office (CCRI-CSO) to develop circular economy solutions and receive tailored support, while Fellows will cooperate with the Pilot Group and help establish a network of knowledge and good practices.

To express your interest, all you need to do is fill out our online application form by Friday 29 April. The form is available in several languages (EN, DE, ES, FR, IT, PL). Responses, however, must be submitted in English.
