The current state of the world - COVID-19 coupled with the triple planetary crisis - has highlighted the need for urbanization to become more sustainable. Doing this while at the same time improving the lives of citizens, creating jobs, and stimulating economic growth will be facilitated through incorporating a circular economic paradigm and accelerating the shift to sustainable production.
