What are the OSCE Days, and what is the Open Source Circular Economy?
OSCEdays is a global project to promote development and adoption of open and reusable tools and solutions that implement a change towards a more sustainable global economy.
Open Source Circular Economy is based on such concepts as reuse, recovery, openness, sharing and sustainability. It is a new way to imagine and implement products and production process that are virtuous because they are low-impact, fair, and creating high social and territorial value.
What will we do in Rome?
The morning part of the meeting will be devoted to inspiration from, and comparisons among, several important local and national organizations and networks that value openness and circularity. Starting from those real world examples, we will debate together the importance and advantages of Open Source Circular Economy for both citizens and businesses, and the role of the latter to tackle local development challenges.
In the afternoon, instead, we will try to codesign possible concrete solutions to the problems presented in the morning session, in an interactive and entertaining way, applying collective intelligence and design thinking methods.
