CIWM Resource Conference CYMRU 2023

Resourcing the Welsh Circular Economy

Join ISWA’s National Member in the UK, CIWM, for a day of inspiration, conversation, and collaboration as we explore the key issues and opportunities Wales faces on its journey to take circular economy principles forward. 

This year’s programme promises to be a day full of inspirational conversations and collaboration with a mix of engaging keynotes, informative speaker sessions, interactive workshops, sharing of best practice and plenty of opportunity to network. Including;

• Exploring the key issues and opportunities Wales faces leading the way towards becoming a Circular Economy. 
• Hear from the Welsh Government about the latest policy developments and their work in driving Circular Economy principles forward. 
• A case study from a Welsh Local Authority about the implementation and operation of a residual waste restriction scheme. Sharing valuable lessons they learnt along the way with you, including communications and enforcement. 
• Be the first to hear about policies that the Welsh Government are currently looking at, and how they are working to build on the success of a high recycling nation.
