Regional 3R and Circular Economy Forum in Asia and the Pacific

The Regional 3R and Circular Economy Forum in Asia was launched in November 2009, with an objective to provide strategic policy advices to national government authorities in mainstreaming 3Rs in the overall policy, planning and development.

Note: "Circular Economy" was added to the conference title from the 10th forum (2020).

The Forum seeks to address policies, programs, measures, tools and technologies in the context of achieving resource efficiency, sustainable production and consumption, integrated solid waste management, sound material-cycle, low-carbon and zero waste society. The Forum also provides a knowledge sharing platform for disseminating and sharing best practices in 3R areas, including new and emerging issues of concern in waste management.
