About Us

 

 

We are an international network of cities and regions a common goal: promoting sustainable resource management practices. Established to encourage innovation, knowledge transfer, and cooperation, we are at the forefront of the movement toward a circular economy, where resources are used sustainably, and waste is minimised, where sub-national authorities play a key role and establish strong collaborations with a multitude of different stakeholders. 

Our members benefit from access to best practices, tools, and expertise, all aimed at helping local and regional authorities implement cutting-edge waste management and resource recovery strategies. Through partnerships, training, and policy advocacy, ACR+ plays a pivotal role in driving forward sustainable resource management in Europe and beyond. 

Our Story

From an association to exchange good practices on separate waste collection in urban and regional settings to an international network embracing a holistic approach to sustainable resource management.

Our Vision

Vibrant cities and regions where the eco-nomic and the eco-logical systems go hand in hand, through policies aimed at a fair distribution of wealth and resources, a fair access to public services, while guaranteeing positive effects on the environment and public health.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide our members with concrete tools and approaches to enact the transition towards waste-free circular systems in their territories and beyond.
