“…Tleppaev and Zeinolla conducted research on approaches to circular economy (CE) indicators in the European Union and the OECD countries (Tleppaev & Zeinolla, 2021). To evaluate one of the characteristics of CE, namely, the recycling of raw materials, they created a model that allows us to evaluate the impact of indicators on this characteristic.…”

Climate change, deterioration of nature, pollution - all these have led to the fact that ecological behaviour has become a necessity for the conservation of nature and its resources. Pro-environmental behaviour is one of the most important factors for sustainable development. Thus, from year to year, pro-environmental behaviour becomes an important subject of discussion for many scientists and government bodies. The purpose of this study is to determine the level of pro-environmental behaviour among the population in household waste sorting and to identify the state of development of infrastructure for the disposal of household waste in the settlements of Kazakhstan. The methodology includes an Internet survey, which was conducted among the population of Kazakhstan aged 18 years and older. The survey involved 2264 respondents. Research results show that 3 out of 5 hypotheses that we assumed turned out to be positive. Thus, statistical analyses showed the following results: Pro-environmental behaviour and waste management mostly depend on - 1) the gender of the respondents, 2) the level of education of the respondents, and 3) the type of settlements of the respondents. Also, the sorting of household waste has a negative connection with the age and marital status of the respondents. Based on these results, it can be assumed that pro-environmental behaviour can be affected by gender, level of education, and the type of settlement. Policymakers should pay attention and give support at all levels like infrastructure, education, etc.

The development of circular economy entails systemic changes at various levels involving all stakeholders. Stakeholders play a crucial role in creating and ensuring the necessary conditions for the establishment and thriving of the circular economy. They set the primary direction for and act as the driving force behind sustainable development. In this regard, this study aimed to determine the readiness of stakeholders for the formation and development of the circular economy in Kazakhstan. An expert survey was conducted among representatives of business, academia and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The survey involved 54 experts, and the data were analyzed using the SPSS 25 software. The analytical findings underscore that the sector of science and education manifests the highest state of readiness among stakeholder segments. Conversely, sectors encompassing society, consumers, governmental bodies, and financial institutions demonstrate relatively modest levels of preparedness. Furthermore, this study delved into distinct statistical variances across stakeholder readiness levels and proffered targeted recommendations aimed at mitigating challenges hampering the establishment of a circular economy framework within Kazakhstan.

Facilitating Circular Economy Strategies Using Digital Construction Tools: Framework Development

et al. 2023

The construction sector has undergone several transformations to address adverse environmental, economic, and social impacts. The concept of the circular economy (CE) has transcended into this domain to solve the needs of construction amid resource constraints. Furthermore, advanced digital tools are being implemented across industries owing to the boost given by the fourth industrial revolution. This paper aims to develop a framework that investigates the effect of digital tools on CE implementation in the construction sector. The study is based on a three-step approach, where first, an initial framework design based on a systematic literature review was conducted. This is followed by framework optimization using semistructured interviews with experts and validation through a case study. This study resulted in the development of a new framework, which aims to investigate how advanced digital tools can be used in the construction sector to enhance CE implementation. The contribution of the present study is two-fold: (1) the integration (addressing existing research gap) of CE and digitalization concepts in the construction sector; (2) an investigation into the critical barriers, offering insights for construction practitioners.
