SAVE THE DATE – Paris Forum 2-3 July 2019

The Global Product Stewardship Council and French producer responsibility organisation (PRO) for sharps, DASTRI, invite you to join us in Paris this July for the next International Stewardship Forum.

The Paris Forum will help attendees understand extended producer responsibility (EPR) and product stewardship issues and opportunities, particularly in the context of broader sustainability and circular economy approaches. Practical considerations, case studies and in-depth discussions with international speakers will feature throughout.

The Paris Forum will examine EPR and product stewardship in a broad context across a wide range of products, with an emphasis on public health and safety, including appropriate management of medical devices and medicines. The Paris Forum will also delve into business case, economic and performance considerations of EPR and product stewardship.

SAVE THE DATE – Paris Forum 2-3 July 2019

The Paris Forum is supported by the French Ministry for Health, French Ministry for Environment, PROs and other stakeholders. 

Presentations and discussions will be reflected in an outcomes document to help capture the extensive international expertise available.

Program, speakers and registration information will be posted as they become available.
