A collection of insights on the circular economy in Africa. The goal of this collection is to explore the potential of the circular economy in a selection of key economic sectors in African countries and highlight examples of the circular economy in action.

For the built environment, the collection considers aspects such as local materials, traditional building techniques, reusing and reclaiming materials, repurposing buildings, designing for deconstruction, modularity, flexibility, bioclimatic and passive design, and closing the loop.
