​​​The Canadian Circular Cities and Regions Initiative (CCRI) works to build circular economy knowledge and capacity in the Canadian local government sector – offering a national webinar series on innovative approaches and providing direct support, guidance and peer-to-peer exchange to Canadian communities as they take steps to become more circular.

Visit our Peer-to-Peer Network page to discover our ten new communities welcomed to the 2022/23 P2P Network.

The CCRI welcomed its first Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Network cohort in 2021. Each community explored circular economy solutions to fit their unique context. Summaries of the Circular Economy Roadmaps developed by each P2P Network member are available now on the Peer-to-Peer Network page.​​
