ONLINE WEBINAR: THE GIFTS OF CIRCULARITY

Australia, New Zealand and our Asia/Pacific neighbours can learn a great deal from members of the European Union (EU) where the transition towards a circular economy is already underway. This was an obvious takeaway from a recent European Study Tour organised by the Australian Circular Economy Hub and Planet Ark, which derived significant learnings from the Netherlands, Sweden, France and the UK as well as the World Circular Economy Forum in Helsinki, Finland.

In the second webinar of this series, ACE Hub is joined by three circular economy practitioners who joined the ACE Hub Study Tour Delegation. Moderated by Planet Ark’s Nicole Garofano, we will hear from Bronwyn Voyce, Founder of Civic Futures Lab, Emily Dunstan, Chief Growth Officer at Sustainability Victoria and Hayley Jarick, CEO of the Supply Chain Sustainability School.

In this webinar, speakers will share their reflections on the strategic policy directions underway in the EU and discuss how education supports circular economy adoption across all businesses, including SMEs. They will unpack how value-chain collaboration and industrial symbiosis are enabling circular adoption and acceleration.
