The Interreg Europe Policy Learning Platform is a European Union initiative supporting regional and local policymakers through knowledge exchange, peer learning and expert advice. It helps public authorities improve the design and implementation of regional development policies, including those related to environment and resource efficiency.
In the field of bio-waste management, the Platform addresses sustainable waste management, separate collection of organic waste, composting, anaerobic digestion and bio-waste valorisation within circular economy frameworks. It provides thematic publications, good practice databases, policy briefs, events and expert consultations to support evidence-based policymaking. By facilitating interregional cooperation and capacity building, the Platform assists regions in developing circular bioeconomy strategies, improving resource efficiency and strengthening sustainable waste governance across Europe.
