On that occasion, during a thematic workshop entitled “From theory to practice”, partners talked about the implementation of LC (Life Cycle) methodologiesin environmental and resource efficiency policies, focusing on practical means to apply LC into practice.
The second part of the workshop has been dedicated to the comparison and discussion of the seven regional analysis realised by the regions, including local good practices already identified.
The benchmarking highlighted the opportunities and difficulties faced by partners while realizing their analysis. The result of this exchange provided an overview of potential practical tools that could be useful to design the regional action plans.
Peer-to-peer discussions and round tables helped partners and stakeholders understanding the potential application of LC in three of the five thematic pillar:
- LC for resource efficiency;
- LC in waste and material flows;
- LC in public procurements;
Some representatives of the regional stakeholders’ groups joined the thematic workshop. Partners, stakeholders, and external experts participated in the peer review in order to gather ideas to develop future action plans and identifying good practices in the regions.
