As a frontrunner in the field of waste and materials policy, OVAM sees its responsibility as sharing its knowledge, policy insights and good practices. We believe that the transition to a circular economy needs a global, international approach and we are committed to sharing our experiences and learning from policies and projects elsewhere in the world. If you would like to plan a (study) visit, please go to the Contact page on this website.
We conclude cooperation agreements with numerous countries and regions, both within and outside Europe, in the context of the foreign policy of the Flemish government
OVAM currently enjoys structural bilateral cooperation with colleagues from the environmental administrations of the Netherlands and South Korea.
