SIMBIO Global Webinar

The Social Innovation Management for Bioplastics (SIMBIO) project applied a social innovation lab method in Brazil, Canada, Poland, and the United Kingdom to explore the challenges and opportunities, as well as the role of bioplastic food packaging in a circular economy. In this collaborative project, each country followed a similar approach to social innovation that included key informant interviews and a series of three workshops. We drew on the expertise of stakeholders representing diverse sectors of the food supply chain who are impacted by the production, use, and end-of-life management of food packaging. At this global webinar, we will present the findings from this study.

The webinar will take place from 17:00-19:00 CEST (8:00-10:00 PDT, 11:00-13:00 EDT, 12:00-14:00 BRT, 16:00-18:00 BST). Preliminary event agenda (in CEST):
