Twelve provinces align their policy and projects within the IPO steering group on the circular economy. The group consists of the circular economy programme managers and policy advisers of each province, organised from the Interprovinciaal Overleg. By sharing knowledge, experience and practical examples, the provinces avoid each reinventing the wheel separately.
The scale of all twelve provinces together makes it possible to spread successful approaches faster and to improve national and international conditions jointly. New Economy filled the role of chair and secretary and connected current developments in the field to the activities of the provinces.
