UNEP & Akatu Institute: Longer lifetime for products: The role of policy instruments and consumer information tools

We are pleased to invite you to attend the webinar “Longer lifetime for products: The role of policy instruments and consumer information tools” organized by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and Akatu Institute, under the auspices of the Working Group on Product Lifetime Extension of the One Planet network Consumer Information Programme.

In a society of mass consumption, where everything prompts us to constantly create new needs and throw away the products that we use at the first failure (sometimes even before!), it is urgent to change this paradigm and move towards sustainable production and consumption models. 

This webinar will explore how best we can promote longer lifetime for products, in the context of circular economy, with a focus on the role of policy instruments and consumer information tools.
