Abstract
This review paper explores circular economy (CE) initiatives and Green Public Procurement (GPP) practices in Poland, focusing on practical implementation and regulatory frameworks. The concept of CE is explored in depth, focusing on its potential to mitigate climate change and resource depletion by extending product lifecycles and reducing waste generation. Transitioning to a CE model offers numerous environmental and economic benefits, including decreased greenhouse gas emissions, enhanced resource efficiency, and job creation. The transition to a circular economy aligns with sustainable development goals. GPP drives demand for eco-friendly products and services, evolving to include environmental and social considerations. The Sztum Circular Economy (SCE) project, funded under the “Environment, Energy, and Climate Change” program, serves as a case study to illustrate the practical application of CE principles locally through initiatives like selective waste collection and educational campaigns. This review highlights the synergy between CE and GPP, offering guidance for policymakers, municipalities, and stakeholders seeking to advance sustainability agendas at the local and national levels. By embracing CE and GPP, countries can accelerate the transition to sustainability while addressing environmental and social challenges.
