This policy brief examines the key role of European regions in enhancing the Circular Economy (CE) through their Smart Specialisation Strategies (S3), that is, strategies for regional innovation aimed at boosting economic growth and competitiveness by building on the region’s strengths and areas of excellence. Drawing on a detailed analysis of regional S3 documents, the research reveals the extent to which CE principles are being integrated into the European regional development planning. Also, it provides a spatial distribution of CE integration across regions, based on the documented extent of CE-related content.
