UrbanWINS is a European project funded by the Research and Innovation Program Horizon 2020 that studies how cities consume resources and products, and how they eliminate the waste produced, in order to develop and test innovative plans and solutions aimed at improving waste prevention and management.

The participatory approach is an added value of UrbanWINS, as the vision of all relevant players for waste production and management at urban level is taken into account to co-develop new strategies and co-test innovative solutions.

This webinar will allow the participants to better understand what are these participatory mechanisms, how they are implemented in the project and what results can be expected from them.
