Disruptions to RS; The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

Disruptions to Responsible Sourcing; The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

The RE-SOURCING project team would like to thank you for taking part in our first virtual event: Disruptions to Responsible Sourcing; The Good, The Bad & The Ugly.

The event was a great success for us, with plenty of interesting presentations, discussions, questions and comments that we will take on as input for our project!

The event outlined the responsible sourcing challenges for businesses transitioning their practices, particularly in the face of emerging challenges from Covid-19 and the expected impetus for materials demand resulting from the Green Deal. Together, we explored the positives and negatives for responsible sourcing in the short, medium and long term.

Here is a quick recap teaser for those of you who participated, and a small taste for those who were not able to do so:
