Scoping Study: Circular Economy in Lumbini and Bagmati Provinces
The Roots of Circularity (RoC) scoping study is a preliminary assessment conducted to explore the concept and implementation of the circular economy (CE) within the Bagmati and Lumbini Provinces. This systematic approach aims to map out existing knowledge, identify gaps, and refine research questions and methodologies for future in-depth studies. Unlike studies that assess the quality of evidence or draw firm conclusions, this scoping study provides a broad overview of the current landscape of CE.
The study specifically targeted dialogues with private sector representatives to gauge the potential for circularity and identify industrial sectors that could benefit from CE interventions. The findings from this scoping study will inform the planning and design of subsequent phases of the RoC project, including the establishment of a local team and an incubator in Lumbini.
