Circular economy initiatives are accelerating across Nepal—driven by local innovation, community action, and public-private collaboration.
In this blog, we share how practical circular solutions can reduce waste leakage, create green jobs, and strengthen local resilience.
The Shift Toward Circularity
Nepal's approach to waste management is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Communities are moving beyond the traditional linear model of 'take-make-dispose' toward a more sustainable circular approach.
“The circular economy isn't just about recycling—it's about reimagining our entire relationship with resources.”
Key Drivers of Change
- Community-led waste segregation programs
- Innovative recycling technologies
- Youth engagement in green entrepreneurship
- Policy support for sustainable practices
These initiatives are not just environmental—they're creating economic opportunities and building community resilience for the future.
