- WEEE Forum invites you to EPR Grand Challenge Conference
The WEEE Forum is turning 20 this year and so is the world’s first supranational Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) legislation regarding electrical and electronic waste – EU Directive 2002/96/EC. Many reasons to celebrate, but also to reflect on the past and ponder the future. What lessons have we learnt in the past two decades? How can we improve the design of EPR legislation? How can legislation set us on a sustainable course and make the economy more circular, more resilient, more self-reliant? How can we collectively address the worldwide societal challenge of e-waste? The WEEE Forum is thus inviting you to join them on 7 December 2022 in Brussels to celebrate, discuss and meet your peers from all over the world! Find all the necessary information (programme, speakers and more) and get your ticket on www.weeeforumconference.com
