This year’s Design for Planet Festival presents a unique conversation between different cities in the UK, on how to collectively drive the shift towards a circular economy.

The session will be a collaborative discussion chaired by Emily Gabb, Head of Strategic Partnerships, NLA. We will hear from representatives of London, Manchester and Edinburgh including:
 
  • Tessa Devreese, Project Manager – CIRCuIT Programme, ReLondon 
  • Daisy Narayanan, MBE, Head of Placemaking and Mobility, City of Edinburgh Council 
  • Julian Broster, Chair of Net Zero New Buildings Task Group Manchester Climate Change Partnership (MCCP), Co-founder and Director Civic Engineers 
 
We will discuss designing in a waste-free and regenerative way. How can the built environment work towards a national and global circular call to action? Exploring initiatives that empower businesses of all sizes to drive innovation and embrace circular economy principles, what strategies exist to integrate circularity into products and services? 

How do we collectively enact a cultural change, through better collaboration amongst sector, cities, countries and people?
