From Local Experiments to Global Transition Pathways: Integrating Circular and Nature-Based Solutions for a Climate-Resilient Future

Abstract: Building a climate-resilient future involves a strategic integration of local actions with robust transition pathways that achieve regional and global outcomes. Such integration empowers local entrepreneurs and communities with a solid foundation for their creativity of new methods, products and services that will provide a foundation for long-lasting practices and standards. An important aspect for creating a sustainability strategy lies in developing a conversion path from a traditional “linear” economy approach to circular loops that include technological, institutional, cultural, nature-based, and market dimensions.
