This is the good practice's implementation level. It can be national, regional or local.
About this good practice
The STRATEGY OF GREEN AND CIRCULAR ECONOMY EXTREMADURA 2030 aims to join and align most of the existing material and human resources in Extremadura in the search for a greener and more circular society and economy, where natural resources are a permanent source of opportunities for the regional population.
The first achievement of this GREEN AND CIRCULAR ECONOMY STRATEGY has been to reach a consensus between political, social and economic stakeholders in Extremadura.
Although, at first, the actions are focused on those that come from the Regional Government of Extremadura, the vocation of the strategy is regional and comprehensive, and aims to bring together all the initiatives of Extremadura society, which should be aligned according to EXTREMADURA 2030. The remaining institutions and social entities are called upon to design their own proposals for the application of the strategy in their areas of competence.

Potential for learning or transfer
The potential of transfer is clear, Circular Economy has become an issue to be taken into account in many kind of policies as is an horizontal topic affecting different governamental departments such as education, culture, employment, health, economy, industry, agriculture.
As all european regional governments are aligning their policies to Circular Economy, the coordination among different departments must be a success factor to get it.
