FEAD, the European Waste Management Association and CAObH, the Czech Circular Economy Association, will be holding an in-person conference in Prague on 31 October. It will bring together industry leaders, policy makers and experts to discuss key topics in the waste sector, including energy, recycling, climate and economy, and water.
The International Conference - Strategies toward Green Deal Implementation: Water, Raw Materials & Energy in Green Transition will be taking place for the fifth time this year. It will explore climate change and ways to prevent it.
Scientists and entrepreneurs active in the fields of water, raw materials or energy are invited to submit papers on studies covering environmental management, environmental protection and environmental engineering, with a focus on water, raw materials or energy.
BIOEAST has issued a Stakeholder Manifesto on “Sustainable supply chains and strengthened local processing of bioresources in Central and Eastern Europe”. They are calling for signatures from individuals and organisations, both within the Central-Eastern Europe macro-region and beyond.
One advantage of land-based aquaculture is that emissions can theoretically be contained and reused. However, the techniques for doing so keep evolving. If the Nordic aquaculture industry is to grow in an environmentally sustainable manner, information is needed on the best available techniques.
The Nordic Council of Ministers therefore requested a report on the best available techniques for reducing and reusing emissions from land-based aquaculture. This report explores the state of play of Nordic aquaculture and takes stock of emerging and established techniques for reducing emissions and managing waste, with a focus on the circular economy. Improving waste management might improve the viability of land-based aquaculture, supporting the sustainable growth of this sector.
EU Green Week is an annual opportunity to raise awareness, promote and discuss European environmental policy. This year's focus is Towards a water resilient Europe.
There are two strands: the EU Green Week conference Towards a water resilient Europe, taking place on 29-30 May in Brussels, and the EU Green Week Partner Events, taking place between 29 May and 1 September around Europe. They will focus on water resilience, but there are several on circularity, too - such as Implementing circular economy with EU Ecolabel, taking place on 27 August in Latvia.
The European Commission’s Directorate-General for the Environment is thrilled to announce the launch of the #WaterWiseEU campaign, and invites you to become a campaign partner.
CEwater International Conference 2024 will take place on 22-24 April on-site in Cracow, Poland. It will take stock of the waterCEmanagement in practice project and set out the challenges facing and methods for water and waste water management. It will also present organisational, technological, educational and information-oriented good practices for rolling out the circular economy in the water and waste water management sector.
The Romanian Government has approved an Action Plan promoting the Circular Economy as part of the National Strategy for the Circular Economy (NSCE). The action plan sets out a national vision for speeding up the transition to a circular economy, with measures geared to the nine economic sectors with the greatest potential for circularity in Romania's economy: agriculture and forestry; automotive; construction; food and beverages; packaging; textiles; electrical and electronic equipment; waste; water; wastewater.
The action plan has a cross-sectoral strand including promotion activities and a monitoring platform. It also stipulates 52 priority measures scheduled to be rolled out between 2024 and 2032.
This conference (in Romanian) will take place in Cluj-Napoca (Romania) on 3 November (10:30 – 14.00 CET).
It aims to facilitate dialogue and the exchange of best practices at regional level on water and wastewater policy with a view to promoting sustainable water resource management, ensuring universal access to drinking water, public sewerage and wastewater treatment services, and implementing a specific circular economy action.
The 4th International Conference on Strategies toward Green Deal Implementation – Water, Raw Materials & Energy (ICGreenDeal2023) will take place on 14-15 December. It will tackle climate change and ways to prevent it, including innovative solutions (technological, environmental, economic and social) that can be implemented under the Green Deal Strategies.
