Abstract:
The circular economy and waste management have become indispensable approaches for achieving green transformation and sustainable development. This paper reviews international experiences in waste management aligned with circular economy principles in production and consumption, extracts lessons learned, and identifies challenges faced by Vietnam in implementing circular waste management. Based on these findings, the paper proposes policy implications for Vietnam in waste management toward a circular economy in production and consumption. A new contribution of this paper is that it distills global lessons for a developing country like Vietnam and offers some main policy recommendations for Vietnamese government agencies, businesses, and consumers.
