Who we are

Circular Innovation Council (CIC) is a national non-profit organization and registered charity with roots dating back to 1978. CIC works to accelerate Canada’s transition to a circular economy by helping governments, businesses, institutions, and communities move circular economy concepts into practical action.

Our programs and projects focus on reducing waste, retaining material value and embodied carbon, strengthening supply chain resilience, advancing circular procurement, supporting SMEs and innovation, and helping build a more competitive and low-carbon economy.
