Circular Arizona and Arizona Forward partner for the circular economy

Phoenix, Arizona — Circular Arizona is delighted to announce a new partnership with Arizona Forward. This Arizona nonprofit organization aims to bring business and civic leaders together to promote cooperative efforts to improve our state and local regions' environmental sustainability and economic vitality.

Circular Arizona will participate in meaningful discussions on the circular economy in Arizona Forward’s Waste & Circular Economy Committee to examine issues and opportunities for exchanging and developing ideas, information, knowledge, and technologies around ways to reduce and reuse material waste produced in the community.

Additionally, Circular Arizona will advocate for equity in circular economy solutions and collaborations in Arizona Forward’s Regional Councils for Northern, Central, and Southern Arizona.

As a new partner, Arizona Forward will bring its sustainability network, passion, and collaborative approach to contribute to Circular Arizona's mission to foster an equitable circular economy for all Arizonans. Circular Arizona looks forward to a productive collaboration with Arizona Forward and expresses sincere gratitude for the organization’s support.

Terrence Gellenbeck, Chair of the Circular Arizona Board of Directors, adds, “For years, there has been overlap in the missions and memberships of Circular Arizona and Arizona Forward. We couldn’t be more excited to make a concrete connection between the organizations to foster an equitable circular economy for a sustainable Arizona.”

Other organizations eager to contribute to Arizona's circular economy are invited to explore Circular Arizona partnership at CircularArizona.org/Partnership.

Circular Arizona members are encouraged to get involved with Arizona Forward’s Waste & Circular Economy Issue Committee via Zoom meetings on the first Thursday of each month: https://arizonaforward.org/take-action/issues-committees/waste-and-circular-economy/
