1. Fill data gaps through data pooling mechanisms;

2. Develop public data assets, including a dashboard tracking the UK circular economy across multiple scales

Have begun building the pipelines to extract data for building up our own CE data assets and insights

Database mapping information collected to identifiers to enable ongoing data retrieval and aggregation

• Capturing parameters including lifespan, mass so far. To extend to treatment routes and value

Further validation and harmonisation, and where gaps, estimation
