The
Cyprus Federation of Employers & Industrialists (OEB) took the
initiative to establish the Cyprus Circular Economy Network (CCEN), the first
pioneering Circular Economy Network in Cyprus, following the challenges of
recent years, the growing demands from the European Union (EU) for the
transition of the economy to a green and circular growth model, as well as the
recognition of the significant benefits that circular economy offers to businesses,
industry, consumers, environment and the economy.
The
founding members of the Cyprus Circular Economy Network are:
- The
Cyprus Federation of Employers & Industrialists (OEB) – Leading
Founding Member
- The
Cyprus International Institute of Management (CIIM)
- The
Cyprus Institute (CyI)
- The
Cyprus University of Technology (CUT)
- The
Cyprus Organisation for Standardisation (CYS).
CCEN's ultimate goal is to enable
and accelerate Cyprus' transition to a circular and green economy, particularly
in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, by providing services through a
multilevel stakeholder approach, including businesses, academia, and the public
sector, and thus contributing to the country's economic and social resilience
for a sustainable future.
