During the workshop, we will have moderators who are experts in LCA in each group to navigate the discussion.

- Break – 10 min
- Workshop: Share and engage around LCA on emerging issues – 60 min ~ 75 min
LCA refresher course: Moving from Life Cycle Assessment to Life Cycle Management
Based on an introduction to the concepts of Resource Efficiency and Circular Economy, this Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) refresher course will quickly introduce the fundamentals of Life Cycle Assessment such as the underlying principles, the ISO definition and framework as well the different phases to carry out a LCA study. Afterwards selected topics will be deepened and a few case studies will be shown. The last part of the course will show how life cycle thinking and LCA results can be used in companies to implement life cycle management.
