The Green Growth Commitment (GGC), created in 2014, represents a voluntary pledge by private, public, and civil society stakeholders to move towards a green growth economy in Portugal.

The GGC working groups started their activities in 2016, focusing on sectors or themes considered central for the circular economy, decarbonisation and the country as a whole. The groups cover: industry, cities and regions, mobility, energy and climate, waste, agriculture and forestry, and public procurement.

The working groups are made up of public institutions and business associations that advise the government on what should be the main circular economy and green growth initiatives, and work together on collaborative projects to establish a business case for the circular economy.
