Policy plays a major role in enabling and accelerating the shift to a Circular Economy (CE). Transitioning to a CE in the Fashion Textiles Industry (FTI) requires a holistic policy approach through comprehensive and coherent policy interventions across the resource life cycle. This paper introduces the novel Circular Policy Canvas tool to systematically and visually map CE policies across six dimensions ( and ). This is applied to thirty FTI policies in the EU policy landscape. The canvas enables policymakers and researchers to assess policies to identify gaps and priorities for CE policy development. The findings determine the recency of the EU policy agenda for a circular FTI meaning that there are gaps in terms of coverage and coherence. In particular, the study identifies a lack of attention to displacing the linear economy, a concentration of policies in the head and tail of the resource life cycle with gaps in the core, a dominance of policies in the outer over the inner loop and inadequate coverage of policies focused on actors, infrastructure and resources.

循环政策画布：绘制欧盟可持续时尚纺织业政策

政策在促进和加速向循环经济（CE）转型方面发挥着重要作用。时尚纺织品行业 (FTI) 向 CE 转型需要通过整个资源生命周期进行全面、连贯的政策干预，采取整体政策方法。本文介绍了新颖的循环政策画布工具，可以系统地、直观地在六个维度 ( 和 ) 上绘制 CE 政策。这适用于欧盟政策环境中的三十项 FTI 政策。该画布使政策制定者和研究人员能够评估政策，以确定 CE 政策制定的差距和优先事项。研究结果确定了欧盟循环 FTI 政策议程的近期性，这意味着在覆盖范围和一致性方面存在差距。特别是，研究指出，对替代线性经济缺乏重视，政策集中在资源生命周期的头尾，核心存在缺口，政策外循环主导，覆盖面不足。的政策重点关注参与者、基础设施和资源。
