UK Research and Innovation
The TCC is funded by the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) NICER programme, which is coordinated by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). UKRI convenes, catalyses and invests in close collaboration with others to build a thriving, inclusive research and innovation system. EPSRC creates knowledge in engineering and physical sciences for UK capability to benefit society and the economy.
UKRI NICER programme
The National Interdisciplinary Circular Economy Research (NICER) programme is supported by a four year investment from UKRI. Five new Circular Economy Centres were launched in January 2021. The Centres are exploring how reusing waste materials in the textiles, construction, chemical and metal industries could deliver huge environmental benefits and boost the UK economy.
Academic partners
Working in collaboration with a highly interdisciplinary consortium, the TCC takes a holistic approach to circular economy research in order to support better social, economic and environmental outcomes.
Industry partners
The TCC collaborates with a wide range of partners from industry, the NGO sector, and the public sector.
