WHY ATTEND?
The urgency of shifting from a linear to a sustainable circular society cannot be overstated. Our current patterns of production and consumption exacerbate resource depletion, climate change, environmental pollution, and biodiversity loss, in addition to fostering geopolitical dependence and social inequality.
This conference aims to address these critical issues through collaborative co-creation sessions focusing on water cycles, food systems and spatial strategies and planning for Circular Regions. The goal is to form new connections and co-create project ideas. These project ideas will then be used to help set the I4CS agenda and bring focus to our support activities for the coming year(s). So, let’s work on creating impact together!
