The course will enable you to understand the logic of the relationship between Circular economy and Sustainable development considered in their interdependence. Basic concepts, topics and problems that characterise the interaction between the two models, as well as their application and good practices are presented. Special emphasis is placed on the strategies, programs and the law of the EU in this field, as well as on the opportunities for Sustainable development and Circular economy in Bulgaria.
