Circular Cities: Lisbon

In this session of Re-think Webinar the main circular economy initiatives and projects developed by the city of Lisbon will be discussed. 

The webinar will be held by Francesco Castellano, Founder & President of Tondo, who will first talk about different approaches and metrics to measure circularity at the city level for different uses. Measuring circularity can really help monitoring and improving value chain performances as well as improving sorting methods of the material flows.

In the second part of the webinar Andreia Barbosa, the co-founder of Circular Economy Portugal (CEP), will explain the main circular economy initiatives carried out in recent years by CEP in Lisbon. Circular Economy Portugal is an environmental NGO which aims to accelerate the transition to a circular economy based on sustainable production and consumption. Since 2017, CEP shares knowledge and raises awareness about the concept of circular economy; it develops and implements demonstration projects, from (electronics) repair to (textiles) upcycling and composting; and it is also a network of circular pioneers – social enterprises creating value for society and the environment.

The webinar will be held entirely in English with the support of slides. After the registration, the link to access the webinar will be sent.
