Systemic change is required to move to a circular economy (CE) model which can meet the demands of a growing population in a manner that is decoupled from resource use and waste generation. This book takes a deep dive into the innovation aspect of the circular economy (CE), with a specific focus on India as a geography, where the transformation to a circular economy is underway.
How a developing country like India is tackling the complexities of the transformation and creating innovative solutions is showcased in this book through many practical examples and inspirational case studies. The book lays out the foundations for mainstreaming resource efficiency (RE)/CE in India, and covers innovation led by businesses and start-ups, along with the innovative policies, financing, and collaborative models required to spur and accelerate circular economy approaches, while also providing linkages to the international context.
Features:
- Provides insight into the role of innovation in the circular economy transition
- Helps to develop and facilitate adoption of resource-efficiency policy and strategy with particular focus on key resource sectors and waste streams
- Treats the circular economy as a holistic approach across the entire lifecycle, and places emphasis on upstream interventions and systems change
- Examines the current context of COVID-19 and its impact on circular economy models and practices
- Touches upon how the EU-based approach was adapted and contextualised significantly to work in the unique Indian landscape
This book is aimed at students, researchers, and professionals engaged in the domains of circular economy, sustainability, business innovation, environmental studies, natural resources management, and environmental and resource conservation policy.

À propos de l’auteur
Rachna Arora is working as a team leader in the EU-Resource Efficiency project of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, Bonn, Germany, and as a team leader on the GIZ Circular Economy solutions preventing Marine litter project. She has been working with GIZ for the last 14 years with relevant ministries and government departments towards environmental policy formulation and its implementation. She is a TEDx speaker on the circular economy.
She holds a doctorate degree in environmental chemistry from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee, Uttarakhand, India. She was a member of the interdepartmental committee set up by NITI Aayog (policy Think Tank, GoI) on Resource Efficiency strategy, NITI Aayog’s committee set up by the Ministry of Information Technology and Communication (MeitY), the GoI Circular Economy Action plan on e-waste, MNRE’s Committee on Solar Panel Recycling, and the Ministry of Steel committee on scrap recycling. She is also a working group member of the FICCI Circular Economy Committee, supporting industry research and dialogues on the circular economy.
Dieter Mutz’s professional background is in sanitary engineering, and he has more than 30 years of work experience with bi- and multilateral development organisations (GTZ, KfW, SECO, DEZA, UNIDO, the World Bank, IDB) with assignments in Latin America, the Middle East, and South Asian regions. His professional expertise lies in eco-efficient resource management and integrated solid waste and wastewater management.
His international experiences with resource efficiency and circular economy derive from his assignment as team leader for the EU-financed project called ‘Resource Efficiency Initiative for India’ (January 2017–December 2020) and as Director of the Indo-German Environment Partnership Programme (IGEP), jointly implemented by the Indian Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change (MoEFCC) and GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft für International Zusammenarbeit), financed by the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (August 2010–September 2015). This programme had a focus on sustainable urban and industrial development, land and resource management, as well as environmental protection and climate change mitigation.
In addition, since January 2016, Dieter holds a position as lecturer at the University of Applied Sciences, Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW), an academic and research organisation he had already been affiliated with from 1999 until 2010. His academic focus lies on integrated waste and resource management in Europe and countries in transition.
Dieter holds a doctorate from the University of Karlsruhe where he studied Sanitary Engineering. He has had long-term assignments in Thailand, Nepal, and Ecuador as well as India.
Pavithra Mohanraj is the co-founder of Infinitive, a young advisory firm working to accelerate the adoption of the circular economy in India through communications, capacity building, business advisory, and ecosystem development projects. Infinitive has played a key role in shifting mindsets and shaping the evolving conversation around the circular economy in India.
Pavithra graduated from the National University of Singapore with a Bachelor of Science (with Merit). She has over a decade of experience leading projects in sustainability and Circular Economy across Singapore and India, and has worked with industry, as well as bilateral and multilateral agencies. Most recently, Pavithra has also completed a year-long stint at the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) as a Consultant supporting projects under the Sustainable and Circular Textiles portfolio of the UNEP India Office.

Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
