The Belgian Public Waste Authority Transition Network is a partnership that has developed a long-term vision to innovate on a system level (not incrementally) and to create a “transition path” to more sustainable material practices. The Network’s focus areas include closing material cycles, designing safe materials to circulate in closed cycles, increasing services (shifting from selling products to offering services) and creating more sustainable plastics. Weaving these diverse policy mechanisms into combinations which would reinforce each other can help to generate more effective, efficient and lasting outcomes.
