The CirCLER project aims to deliver a new qualification profile and the related new joint curricula for circular economy transition managers for the wood and furniture industry.

It is organising a webinar as part of the Women for Circular Furniture Conferences Cycle, bringing together women researchers, innovators and professionals driving the circular transition of the European furniture sector through research, development and innovation.

The webinar will explore women-led R&D&i initiatives, innovative circular strategies and the challenges facing women working in scientific and technological environments linked to the furniture industry.

It will open with a keynote speech on the circular transition in the furniture sector, looking at product, business model and ecosystem strategies.

It will then present various European projects and research initiatives contributing to circular innovation in the furniture sector, such as:

• R-evolve: Shaping the Circular Furniture Transition
• PURELY: Polyurethane Foam Recycling Technology through Green Chemistry Catalysis
• FURNCIRCLE: Circular Economy Guidelines and Tools for Application in the EU Furniture Sector

This webinar will start at 10:00 CEST on 10 June. Registration and programme.
