Australia is waste deep in a resource recovery crisis and there’s never been a more urgent time for the Resource Recovery sector to come together.
AWRE, the nation’s leading platform for waste and resource recovery solutions returns to Sydney this 26-27 July, with a jam-packed program and show floor buzzing with innovations from FOGO to eWaste, vehicles to the latest in recycled materials and technology, but it’s the discussions happening off the show floor that are changing the game.
Along with three dedicated waste zones, focusing on Innovation, Recycled products and food organic waste, AWRE has also expanded its Summit program this year in response to industry demand. Bringing together 250 Australian key decision makers the Summit is titled “Reality Check on Recovered Resources + Residuals” and will tackle waste’s biggest issues.
The summit, hosted by NWRIC, WCRA and ACOR, will also cover topical areas including the state of our Resource Recovery system, the reality, roadblocks and solutions to help us progress towards national targets, and the challenges and policies surrounding residuals management in Australia .
“The hard truth in the 2022 National Waste Report is, that despite increased urgency for an efficient resource recovery system, we have moved backwards. This year the AWRE Summit is poised to be a reality check for the industry and will provide a much-needed wakeup call on the state of our current resource recovery system in Australia,” said AWRE Product Manager, Sofie Teh.
Key speakers include:
* Richard Pittard, Head of Sustainability at Cleanaway.
* Tony Khoury, Executive Director at WCRA.
* Brett Lemin, Executive Officer at Victorian Waste Management Association.
* And many more.
Summit registration is now open and will set the scene for robust and challenging discussions that ask the hard questions that must be raised if Australia is to meet its waste reduction targets. In addition to the Summit, AWRE will be running its regular free education program that sits within the exhibition space. To purchase tickets or register free for the event visit the AWRE website.
