The Resourceful Futures Challenge Area presents this workshop on digitalisation, circular economy and infrastructure.
Utilising digitalisation and embracing the principles of the circular economy can steer us toward achieving sustainable development. One prominent application of these concepts lies in the enhancement of urban infrastructure. During this event, we will present several examples of how these approaches can be employed in this context, followed by a discussion on their contributions to sustainability.
