Abstract:
The circular approach is inextricably linked to sustainable development, but the imperfect regulatory framework in Ukraine makes it difficult to integrate environmental standards into various business sectors. Solving this issue requires a comprehensive approach and intensified lawmaking. The aim of the article is to identify the main elements, problems and lacunae in the regulatory framework in Ukraine that impede the implementation of the circular approach and to provide recommendations for enhancing its development in line with European practices. In the pre-war period, the circular approach in Ukraine had just begun to take shape, but the desynchronisation and inconsistency of the State policy in the development of national strategies and plans led to a lack of coordination and inconsistency of actions. In 2022, Ukraine redefined circular approach from waste treatment to waste management. However, the existing conception of the circular approach also has significant drawbacks: insufficiently defined operations of waste prevention through resource efficiency, lack of a clear State policy on industrial waste management, the need to develop legislation on extended producer responsibility, uncertain financial and economic incentives for sustainable waste management, and the need to develop the framework for separate waste collection and treatment. The adoption of the Law of Ukraine ‘On the Basic Principles of State Climate Policy’ in 2024 introduces the concept of a circular economy, expanding its meaning from traditional waste management to integrate it into the concept of low-carbon development. Strategic implementation of the circular approach depends on a rethinking of the approach: from waste management to value chain management throughout the entire product life cycle. The current situation in Ukraine can become a catalyst for quick and decisive action towards a circular economy, including the introduction of advanced circular technologies, with the responsibility for implementation mainly placed on the private sector.

Keywords: circular approach, waste management, low-carbon development, climate policy, international obligations.
