(enclosed with Decision No. 222/QD-TTg dated January 23, 2025 of the Prime Minister)
Climate change, environmental pollution and degradation, loss of biodiversity, scarcity of raw materials and supplies are significant challenges facing humanity in the 21st century. Numerous initiatives at both global and regional levels have been adopted and vigorously implemented to address these challenges such as: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement on climate change aiming for net-zero emissions by 2050, the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework 2022, the Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021 - 2030), etc. The trend of integrating issues related to environmental protection, climate change response, conservation of nature, biodiversity, green economy, circular economy (CE), low-carbon economy and sustainable development into the process of negotiation, construction or upgrading of international treaties and new-generation free trade agreements (FTAs) is becoming increasingly common. In the above context, new demands, opportunities and challenges for production, business, trade, investment, finance, resource management, environmental protection, climate change response, employment, and security have been or are being created.
The circular economy development achieves the consensus of the international community, is seen as a means to harmoniously address the relationship between economic growth and development and environmental protection, and serves as a pathway towards a green economy and sustainable development. Many countries and regions have issued or are in the process of developing strategies, plans, and visions, establishing legal frameworks to promote the circular economy implementation in accordance with the characteristics and conditions of each country or region. CE framework for the ASEAN Economic Community was approved in 2021 with an aim of making ASEAN a center for innovation and mobilizing investment for CE development, high competitiveness, economic prosperity, environmental sustainability, and social equity.
In the recent period, Vietnam has achieved many important accomplishments in socio-economic development, with the transformation of the growth model linked to the restructuring of the economy towards green growth and sustainable development yielding many positive results. Climate change response, resource management and environmental protection are initially placed at the epicenter of development decisions in order to achieve better uniformity, effectiveness and proactivity. The resources are planned, managed, exploited and used rationally, economically, effectively, and sustainably. The production and consumption in the economy show positive signals, with several initiatives and models for sustainable production and consumption, models for effectively using resources, recycling and reusing waste being established, popularized, and developed. The environmental protection is emphasized and innovated strongly with a consistent policy of not sacrificing the environment for mere economic growth and gradually shifting from a reactive response to proactive prevention, control, and restoration. However, the management of resources is still limited; the efficiency of resource exploitation and utilization is low compared to the world and the region; the level of waste and wastewater generation continues to increase; sorting, collecting, recycling, reusing and treating waste face many difficulties; pollution and environmental degradation are still ongoing issues.
CE development in Vietnam has early received the attention, orientation, and unified direction of the CPV and the State in many documents such as: The strategy for socio-economic development for the 10 years from 2021 to 2030 and many relevant resolutions promulgated by the central government on energy, industrialization, modernization, urbanization, agriculture, rural areas, farmers, sustainable development of socio-economic regions, resource management, environmental protection, and climate change response. Schemes for CE development of Vietnam have been issued, and CE is gradually being integrated into the development strategies, programs, schemes, planning and plans of various sectors, fields, and local areas. Environmental protection laws have institutionalized the CE, put forward regulations on criteria, measures, responsibility and mechanisms for promoting CE. In reality, certain sectors, fields, local areas, enterprises and cooperatives have taken the initiative to actively apply measures for CE implementation in their management, production, business, and service provision. However, alongside the achieved results, CE development still faces many limitations, is spontaneous, lacks synchronization, and fails to meet the requirements set in the context of national resource capacity being limited, deteriorating and being depleted; raw materials, fuels, and materials are becoming increasingly scarce; waste generation is on the rise; the environment is deteriorating, biodiversity is declining, and the impacts of climate change continue to escalate.
The National Action Plan for CE development by 2035 specifies the roadmap for implementing CE in accordance with the 2020 Environmental Protection Law, Decree No. 08/2022/ND-CP dated January 10, 2022 of the Government elaborating certain articles of the Environmental Protection Law (hereinafter referred to as “Decree No. 08/2022/ND-CP”), and the guidelines and policies of the CPV and State on CE development with perspectives, objectives, tasks, solutions, and prioritized sectors and fields for implementing CE nationwide; it serves as a basis for ministries, central authorities and local authorities to develop and organize CE implementation within their assigned functions, tasks, scope and areas of management.
1. CE implementation is prioritized to create new growth drivers, enhance resilience and recovery for the economy, achieve breakthroughs in development, promote innovation in growth models, improve quality, efficiency and competitiveness, create new value-added chains, harmonize the relationship between the economy and the environment, contribute to the fulfilment of international commitments on nature conservation, biodiversity, achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and sustainable development.
2. Enterprises, cooperatives, production and business establishments, and service providers are proactive and creative in applying the CE; the rights and interests of consumers and citizens serves as a driving force for CE development; the state plays a central role in establishing an environment for institutions and policies, organizing management and regulation to encourage the participation of economic components, local communities, agencies, organizations, and individuals on the basis of the laws of the market economy regulated by the state, in accordance with common international practices, principles, and standards.
3. CE implementation is a regular, continuous and long-term objective linked to the innovation and the achievements of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, breakthroughs in science and technology; it is an important part of the green transition, the green economy, and low carbon; developing interconnected and uniform infrastructure among regions; developing high-quality human resources, creating new jobs to maximize the value of raw materials, materials and waste throughout the entire stages of design, production, distribution, consumption, and waste management.
4. The advantages, potential and characteristics of various disciplinaries, fields, regions and local areas are maximized in a manner that ensures the interconnection between sectors and regions, and comprehensive approaches to develop suitable CE models; best practices are developed, and culture is developed in sustainable production and consumption; the independence and autonomy are enhanced in mobilizing and effectively utilizing domestic and international resources for CE implementation; digital transformation is a crucial driver for developing advanced, modern, and sustainable CE models.
5. The interests of relevant subjects are ensured harmoniously, the people are placed at the center, the enhancement of social welfare and the quality of life of the people is being emphasized; CE development is conformable to the views, policies, guidelines, and laws of the CPV and State regarding the economic and social development of the country and the international trend of CE implementation.
