The global waste crisis and sustainability demands the exploration of alternatives solutions to cover societies’ needs. This paper explores and proposed a nexus approach in developing next-generation waste strategies, integrating circular economy principles, waste-to-energy technologies, zero waste, prevention activities as well as European Union policies such as the European Green Deal, Fitfor55, to offer an informed agenda for determining trade-offs and interactions to meet future mandate, while increasing efficiency of the resources, without cooperating safeguards for the environmental defence. By examining these perspectives, this paper aims to highlight the synergistic potential of these strategies in fostering a low-carbon society and advancing in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Abstract
The global waste crisis and sustainability demands the exploration of alternatives solutions to cover societies’ needs. This paper explores and proposed a nexus approach in developing next-generation waste strategies, integrating circular economy principles, waste-to-energy technologies, zero waste, prevention activities as well as European Union policies such as the European Green Deal, Fitfor55, to offer an informed agenda for determining trade-offs and interactions to meet future mandate, while increasing efficiency of the resources, without cooperating safeguards for the environmental defence. By examining these perspectives, this paper aims to highlight the synergistic potential of these strategies in fostering a low-carbon society and advancing in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
