The City of Helsinki’s Roadmap for Circular and Sharing Economy

City of Helsinki has recognised the significance of circular and sharing economy for solving major sustainability challenges. As stated in the Helsinki City Strategy for 2017–2021, emissions reductions and circular economy projects will be implemented in Helsinki in cooperation with the corporate world and residents. The new operating models for sharing economy, created by residents and companies, will make the City more diverse in a communal as well as economic fashion. Helsinki City Board approved the Carbon-neutral Helsinki 2035 Action Plan in December 2018. The Plan includes a total of 147 actions through which Helsinki aims for carbon neutrality. One of them is the creation of a roadmap for circular and sharing economy.
