Circular Economy Leadership Canada is hosting a Knowledge Series of free, public webinars dedicated to sharing information on topical themes and focus areas relevant to the circular economy transition in Canada, with the purpose advancing circularity education and accelerating action.
The second webinar in the Knowledge Series focused on Promoting Inclusivity through the Circular Economy and took place on Wednesday, March 29th, 2023, from 10:30am-11:45am Pacific time / 1:30pm-2:45pm Eastern time.
Inclusivity considerations are integral to not only ensuring the just transition to a circular economy, but also securing the longstanding sustainability and accessibility of circular practices. However, the benefits of actioning inclusivity within circular businesses are not widely known, and there remains a lot of ambiguity around the best practices of building a circular business.

A variety of speakers will share insights and engage in a panel discussion on how to make a more purposeful connection between the circular economy, equity, and inclusion, from the business level to the regional and global levels.

Explore what needs to be considered in order to implement an inclusive circular economy business model, and how this can be effectively done.
