2020 – 5th  Annual Sustainable Inclusive Conference – Circular Economy

The Annual Circular Economy Conference, held fully online for the first time in 2020 due to the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, served as multistakeholder platform for addressing pressing global issues and exploring sustainable solutions. Amidst the crisis, participants engaged in insightful discussions on tackling environmental and economic challenges while identifying opportunities for post-crisis transformation. Delving into key themes such as designing out waste and pollution, keeping resources in circulation, promoting regenerative agriculture and food systems, advancing sustainable construction practices, and harnessing renewable energy and water management strategies, the conference fostered dialogue aimed at shaping a resilient and regenerative future. Through specific breakout sessions, participants exchanged ideas, strategies, and best practices, paving the way for tangible actions towards a more circular and sustainable economy.
