Cities as the Circular Place to Be

A conversation with Saara Vauramo, Programme Director of Lahti – European Green Capital 2021 on all things circular and sustainable, and why cities are the circular place to be.

What is Circular South Conversations?

How can we, as neighbours in local communities, live our lives in a smarter, more circular fashion? How can technology provide support towards behavioural change when it comes to our use of energy, water, waste & materials? These and other questions underpinned the Circular South project in Antwerp (Belgium). Circular South is a project bringing together expertise from 8 partners: the City of Antwerp, VITO/Energyville, IMEC, Ecopower, EnergieID, Kringwinkel Antwerpen, Digipolis & Pantopicon, and was supported by the Urban Innovative Actions programme of the European Union. In this podcast we link some of Circular South's key topics & interests with the work and knowledge of distinguished guests equally aiming to boost circularity in our society.
