Rakesh Vazirani
Director – Decarbonization Solutions, Supply Chain Sustainability, Bureau VeritasSome of my heartfelt thoughts—I truly enjoy contributing to circular economy (CE) journals for several reasons. First, they play a vital role in advancing research and innovation focused on sustainability, resource efficiency, and waste reduction. Secondly, they help bring forward innovative ideas, models, and case studies that shape the future of sustainable development. What also draws me to CE publications is their interdisciplinary impact—they intersect with multiple domains including environmental science, economics, engineering, business, and the social sciences. These journals often emphasize real-world, practical solutions such as closed-loop systems, recycling innovations, and sustainable business models. Publishing research with the ICCE Journal, in particular, holds strong value as it has the potential to directly influence industry practices and policymaking. The journal reflects the growing global focus on climate change, resource scarcity, and sustainability, while highlighting the impactful work of individuals and communities. It contributes to a fast-evolving discourse that not only informs but also inspires. I am proud and always view ICCE as an institution deeply committed to advancing the circular economy agenda—both in thought and in action.
Mr Prabhjot Singh Sodhi
Sr Program Director, Circular Economy, Centre for Environment Education (CEE)The Journal on Circular Economy by International Council For Circular Economy (ICCE) is an excellent resource for all participants in India’s ecosystem underpinning circular economy. It plays an important role of a bridge between the Haves and the Have nots i.e. an audience which is keen to learn about the circular economy practices so that they can adopt them vis-à-vis an audience which is specialized in the subject matter and has acquired that expertise in different parts of the globe. The Journal through its periodic editions ensure that all significant contemporary developments and updates that matter to the concept of circular economy are captured and presented holistically by various contributors representing diverse fields. With a comprehensive and quality compilation documenting the best work in the field of sustainability and circular economy happening in different corners of the world, a curious audience finds herself or himself upgraded to a more informed and aware citizen of the country. It is therefore no surprise that ICCE has generated significant impact and I am sure contributing towards minimising usage of virgin materials, and raising awareness levels around emissions, Climate Change, supply chains, decarbonisation and circular business models. The choice of subjects and contributors who are an expert in the field brings a lot of relevance and authenticity to the publication which ensures that it has something concrete and new every time it is before its audience. I am sure whoever aims for competitiveness will remain hooked to the Journal.
