This project advances Vancouver's Circular Economy of Food (CEF) by answering two questions:

  1. Which indicators best track the valorization of waste?
  2. What is the economic value of our local CEF?

An AHP survey was designed and distributed to a panel of CEF related professionals. The results validate two KPIs from a set of indicators. The CEF's economic value for the region of Metro Vancouver is calculated and an initial policy & action plan presented.
