The launch of the call for "Lessons Learned and Best Practices on circular economy business models and the inclusion of the SDGs in business strategies"

21/06/2018

This call, launched by the EU-LAC Foundation, is addressed to companies and institutions interested in making visible their experiences on the following two topics:

1.  Circular economy and mechanisms of protection to the environment, and renewable energy generation.

2.  The integration of the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs in the business strategy: identifying opportunities for development and for business

A maximum of 20 cases of companies identified as best practices will be selected. In principle, 10 cases focused on circular economy business models and 10 cases regarding the inclusion of the SDGs in business strategies will be selected. 

The deadline for submitting the case study proposals is 13th July 2018 (23:59 local time in Germany).

The EU-LAC and InnovacionAL Foundation will oversee carrying out a wide communication of the selected cases, inviting the organisations member of the bi-regional working group to replicate such communications in their countries. Also, the selected cases will be placed on the webpage of the Foundation, and the platform http://www.bipiz.org

Finally, the World Forum Lille is expected to invite the representatives of the companies and/or foundations of the three best cases in each subject to present their results at the World Forum Lille conference, 16-18 October 2018 in Lille, France (although this is not a commitment of the Foundation).
