Description

The EU and Mexico share a common vision of environmental issues and climate change at the international level. The objective of this EU-Mexico project was to support sectoral dialogues on priority issues shared by both governments through the implementation of concrete action proposals to enhance the circular economy paradigm shift in Mexico.

WE&B gave a market analysis of the overall situation in Mexico in terms of circular economy opportunities with a specific focus on three sectors: solid waste, wastewater, and waste to energy. The findings of the study were presented in a formal report which was presented to the European Commission and the Mexican Government. Clear actions were provided of how each sector in Mexico can transform to a circular economy.
