On 20 November 2020 at 16:00 CET Mrs Gracia Vara, Senior Consultant on EU Law, will give a seminar on “A NEW CIRCULAR ECONOMY ACTION PLAN. THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION STRATEGY”.

The European Commission has set out along the road to achieving a climate neutral economy by 2050. The so-called ¨Green Deal¨ contains many blocks to achieve the target, being one of them the circular economy.


We will present examples of what the circular economy is (versus the linear economy), how far are we in reaching its ambitions, and what is the European Commission doing to ensure that we promote circular economy processes in all the economic sectors, and with the involvement of the different stakeholders.

This seminar will be conducted online through the platform Microsoft Teams and it is open to master / PhD students, academics and other persons interested in the topic.

This lecture is organised by the Institute of European Studies of the UAB together with the Jean Monnet Chair EUPOL.
