CCC is a Proud Participant of the World Circular Economy Forum 2021
The World Circular Economy Forum 2021 (WCEF2021) will be hosted online from Canada, co-organized by the Government of Canada and the Finnish Innovation Fund Sitra, from September 13 to 15, 2021.
Carton Council Canada is a proud participant of the event.
Building on previous forums, WCEF2021 will focus on the system level changes, or “game changers,” needed to accelerate the transition to a circular economy. Seizing the circular opportunity requires transformational change and collective efforts by businesses, policymakers, civil society and others.
Hosted in North America for the first time, WCEF2021 will bring dynamic new voices to the global discussion, explore circular opportunities from the perspective of natural resource producing countries, and highlight the critical importance of the circular economy to fight climate change and to protect biodiversity.
The WCEF2021 website has officially launched! At this time, you can find details about the WCEF2021 programme, the Expo area, and WCEF2021 side events. Please stay tuned for more information to come soon on the sessions and speakers.
Participation is free, open to all. Registration is now open for WCEF2021!
