Collaboration between Sweden and Brazil aims to create a bio-based circular model for sustainable urban economies
One of the pressing challenges faced by urban areas is related to solid waste management. Approximately 70% of the global waste is generated in cities. A significant share of this waste is organic, and can be part of an overall circular cycle.
All the work developed by CISB - Swedish-Brazilian Research and Innovation Center - for the Open Innovation Learning Week in Sweden 2018 (OILW) was crucial to the great success of the edition, which took place from November 5 to 9, in 4 Swedish cities.
The Open Innovation Learning Week in Sweden 2018 was attended by a representative Brazilian delegation, involving members of industry, academia and government, providing an ideal platform for integration and exchange of experiences, interests and perspectives.
