PACE is a neutral, public-private collaboration platform made up of global changemakers and their organizations working together to accelerate the transition to a circular economy.

PACE’s role is to identify intervention points in global production systems that show high potential for transitional shifts but that are currently under-served. 

Our current programs focus on under-served, high-priority areas of global importance, all of which present clear opportunities to improve environmental quality, economic development, and social equity at the local, regional, and country levels. All present clear benefits for people, nature, and the climate. They are: 

- Recapturing resources for circular food production.
- Scaling mineral circularity for global resilience. 
- Integrating circularity with climate measures.

We work globally and operate as a change-making orchestrator to bring the best-in-class scientific, economic, and social expertise together to identify clear gaps where circularity can be introduced and where it can make the most impact. With our communities of practice, we drill down into the details and collaborate to identify points in the system where we can collectively leverage the most impact. 

Our guiding philosophy is that systems change happens through people. PACE therefore subscribes to a systemic model that addresses the potential within specific individuals to close the knowledge-to-action gap and implement change within their organizations and companies. We believe that people are the content and that specific actors hold the required knowledge, power, and capacity to influence change. Recommendations must be specific and scalable/actionable in practice by specific individuals at their point within systems. 

PACE was launched by the World Economic Forum and is a delivery platform hosted by the World Resources Institute. PACE is facilitated by a full-time team in The Hague, Netherlands.
