A number of speakers have already accepted our invitation including ILO, Inditex, Bureau of International Recycling / Texaid, BSH Spain, Spanish Consumer Organisation (OCU), Spanish Social Economy Employers’ Confederation (CEPES) and the WEEE-Forum. SURFACE Project Partners representatives of RREUSE feature on the agenda including Antigone Dalamagas (Ecorec, Greece), Claire Downey (CRNI, Ireland), Laura Rubio (AERESS, Spain), Gorka Mediavilla (Traperos de Emaús Navarra, Spain), Matthias Neitsch (RepaNet, Austria), Olga Theodorikakou (Klimax Plus, Greece) and Jean-François Hummel (Envie, France).

Important practical points:

  • The capacity for the conference and site visit is limited. We encourage early registrations to benefit from the reduced prices and to avoid disappointment. 
  • Participants are also encouraged to arrange their accommodation as soon as possible. Due to other events taking place in Pamplona at the same time the hotels have limited room availability.
