The Life Cycle Initiative is a multi-stakeholder partnership, including institutional members from governments, businesses, science and civil society, and individual members from science and civil society. The Life Cycle Initiative promotes partnerships to achieve the Agenda 2030 faster and more efficiently by bringing Life Cycle Thinking to decision makers with the practical knowledge and tools to enhance the sustainability of their decisions. To achieve its ambitions the Initiative has a growing need for an engaged and active membership base.
