These recommendations are centred on embedding sustainable practices in both consumption and production. They advocate for systematic changes and educational initiatives, crucial for aligning with the objectives of a circular economy and climate agenda. The focus is on enhancing sustainability across different sectors through strategies such as reducing carbon footprints, revising business models, improving production efficiency, and nurturing a culture of individual and collective responsibility towards sustainable practices:

o   Prioritise the effective management and reduction of excessive water consumption as a key element of sustainable consumption and production.

o   Concentrate on achieving sustainable growth that accounts for long-term environmental and social impacts, rather than solely on economic growth.

o   Embrace a comprehensive, holistic approach to sustainable development, addressing interconnected social, economic, and environmental factors.

o   Balance deregulation with the rationalisation of regulations to effectively meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ensuring streamlined and efficient frameworks.

o   Increase consumer awareness about sustainable consumption patterns and encourage the private and industrial sectors to adopt sustainable marketing and packaging practices.

o   Advocate for the shift towards a circular economy through sustainable production and consumption as a voluntary initiative in both industrial and private sectors, stressing the critical role of food and resource management. Introduce circular economy principles as mandatory practices.

o   Focus on reducing the carbon footprint of Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and humanitarian agencies. This will involve highlighting green procurement practices and engaging with stakeholders like vendors to educate them about sustainable production and consumption.

o     Encourage individual responsibility and targeted sustainable practices among citizens.

o     Foster public and stakeholder engagement to achieve the goals of a circular economy.

o     Make sustainable practices fashionable and appealing to the wider population.

o   Enhance production pathways and intermediary systems, focusing on efficiency and sustainability. The success of a circular economy hinges on this optimisation and resource synchronisation.

o   Adopt a holistic approach in coordinating ministries, integrating scientific evidence for effective policy implementation and sustainable practices.

o   Inculcate a sense of individual responsibility through small steps, building a collective commitment to sustainability. Develop incentives that promote sustainable processes. Highlight success stories, like the decline of cigarette smoking, as models to inspire sustainable production and consumption practices.
