Join us in Italy!

Coinciding with the International Conference on Social Life Cycle Assessment (10–12 September 2018 • Pescara, Italy) the Life Cycle Initiative will organise two workshops related to our projects:

1) Workshop on the Revision of the S-LCA Guidelines

A SLCAlliance/ Life Cycle Initiative workshop will be held on September 12-14th at the University of G. D’Annunzio in Pescara, Italy – back–to-back with the 6th International S-LCA Seminar! To register for the workshop, please send an email to contact@social-lca.org

The workshop will focus on the revision of the SLCA Guidelines, providing a unique opportunity for a face-to-face meeting for members of the S-LCA community involved – or wanting to get involved – in the update of the 2009 UNEP-SETAC Guidelines. All contributors are welcome!

The work will focus on discussing and building upon the first revised draft, which is currently being developed.

Registration process:
To register for the workshop, please send an email to contact@social-lca.org
The cost for the workshop will be approximately 60 Euros. This amount will cover food expenses (two lunches, one dinner and coffee breaks).
This amount will be payable in cash during the first day of the 6th Seminar, or on September 12th at 2:30pm.

Location:
University of G. D’Annunzio in Pescara

If you wish to get involved now in the Guidelines revision process (as a drafter or reviser), please contact Sara Russo Garrido.

Preliminary schedule for the workshop:
Sept. 12th: 1:00pm – 6:00pm (with a group lunch)
Sept. 13th: 9:00am – 6:00pm (with a group lunch and optional dinner afterwards)
Sept. 14th: 9:00am – 1:00pm

2) Stakeholder workshop on linking life cycle thinking to SDGs

A stakeholder consultation workshop on linking life cycle thinking to SDGs will take place as a side event of the International Conference on Social Life Cycle Assessment and is invitation only.

This workshop will establish an agenda for the project, to understand the context of how SDGs are being used by decision makers, how LCA-based metrics can contribute to that, the requirements and wishes of the various stakeholders, and the need for capacity building. If you are interested to participate, please contact the workshop organisers for more information.
