The European Circular Economy Stakeholder Conference will take place on 15 and 16 April 2024 in Brussels - with a twist! 

Europe's top circular economy conference will be joining forces with the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union and the World Circular Economy Forum (WCEF). Policy makers, industry leaders, academics and activists from all around the world will come to Brussels to turn circular visions into actions, making the most of this unique platform for fostering partnerships and reinforcing the role of the circular economy as a driver of sustainable development.

This series of webinars - each aimed at a specific target audience and hosted by BUILD UP - will highlight how different stakeholders could join forces to reskill and upskill the building sector workforce with circular skills by highlighting the main takeaways and outcomes of the EU-funded project BUS-GoCircular.

ECO-FUTURE is a 24-month school education cooperation partnership aiming to create an effective programme for teachers to educate children on the circular economy. The project was inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic, which highlighted the need to re-evaluate and redesign current methods and systems.

The project seeks to get students, schools and communities interested in sustainability, encouraging them to act responsibly at individual, community and global level, now and in the future.

A training course is being organised in Vantaa, Finland from 30 October to 3 November. It's designed for over 15 teachers from Finland, Italy and The Republic of North Macedonia.
