The adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development represented a worldwide acknowledgment of the incapacity of the current development model of development to grant everyone the "Right to sustainable wellbeing". It also signalled the necessity to develop an integrated approach to sustainable wellbeing considering its economic, social, environmental and institutional dimensions. On the basis of such considerations, the present study aimed at drawing attention on an economic model that should be considered the key to generate growth and ensure the sustainability of territorial wellbeing: the circular economy. In particular, while focusing on the strategic role of agriculture as a lever to achieve sustainable wellbeing, the paper aims at offering insights to policy makers and territorial stakeholders who are called to respond to current challenges and implement paradigms that are able to ensure a collective sustainable wellbeing.

L’adozione dell’Agenda 2030 per lo sviluppo sostenibile ha rappresentato un riconoscimento mondiale dell’incapacità dell’attuale modello di sviluppo di sviluppo per garantire a tutti il "Diritto al benessere sostenibile". Ha inoltre segnalato la necessità di sviluppare un approccio integrato al benessere sostenibile considerando le sue dimensioni economica, sociale, ambientale e istituzionale. Sulla base di tali considerazioni, il presente studio mira a richiamare l’attenzione su un modello economico che dovrebbe essere considerato la chiave per generare crescita e garantire la sostenibilità del benessere territoriale: l’economia circolare. In particolare, focalizzando l’attenzione sul ruolo strategico dell’agricoltura come leva per raggiungere il benessere sostenibile, il lavoro intende offrire spunti ai decisori politici e agli stakeholder territoriali chiamati a rispondere alle sfide attuali e implementare paradigmi che siano in grado di garantire un benessere sostenibile collettivo.
