The EU-India Resource Efficiency and Circular Economy Initiative (EU-I RECEI) is a co-financed project between the European Union and the German Federal Ministry of Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection (BMUV). The initiative focuses on facilitating the adoption and implementation of national policies related to Resource Efficiency and Circular Economy (RECE) in India, including India’s Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) framework and inclusive Deposit Refund Schemes (DRS) in key sectors. The project aims to foster circular economy solutions, inclusive value chains, and business models both at the national and state levels while enhancing cooperation between the EU and Indian private sectors, youth, and civil society. Building on the earlier EU-Resource Efficiency Initiative for India (EU-REI) project, the project seeks to expand its impact on implementing RECE projects.
