Seminar series: Innovating for Sustainable Raw Materials Value Chains

March 7 - 08:00March 15 - 17:00

| Online

In March 2023, the H2020 BIORECOVER project is organising an online seminar series with the collaboration of the following European projects: ION4RAWEISAfricaMaVal and SCRREEN.

Raw materials are key to the energy transition, a major challenge to today’s world. Global demand for raw materials is expected to more than double to 167 billion tonnes by 2060 (OECD). Therefore, reliable access to raw materials is critical for Europe to reach its climate ambition of Net Zero by 2050. It is essential that a sustainable supply of raw materials is created and maintained due to the EU’s high reliance on raw materials for its growth, competitiveness, and transition to a greener Europe. However, this is not happening at the scale needed to meet this demand. Thus, unlocking unexploited ore reserves for sustainable value chains must be developed to achieve Europe’s climate, security, and economic ambitions.

This webinar series will present innovative and transformative tools and strategies that can improve the sustainability of Europe’s raw material value chains. Leading experts will share their experiences and outline the opportunities seek through their projects to develop sustainable raw material value chains, as well as challenges faced.

The series is composed of the three following seminars :

  1. Establishing responsible global partnerships – 7th March 2023
  2. Improving the sustainability of critical raw materials extraction – 9th March 2023
  3. Researching unexploited European reserves – 15th March 2023

This online seminar series is intended for all types of audiences willing to discover challenges related to opportunities related to critical raw materials and discuss solutions with experts.
