The research is of field, descriptive and empirical methods are used. It was developed from 2017 to 2019. A checklist was applied for the analysis of the circular economy in each stakeholder and in the chain in general, together with the variables that the instrument has. As a result, the chain was mapped and each individual link was analyzed, along with the identification of its opportunities for improvement ou practical value - methodological value of research. The importance of this is the design of a tool that diagnoses the object of study- holistically, and that from the results define prospective of trend development in an area of Ecuador. |
