About the Symposium

Each year the MSc. WASTE , a department of the
University of Stuttgart , organizes the International Symposium wherein experts from industry and academia, and young minds come together to share knowledge and discuss challenges to sustainable development and environmental security.
In the wake of the consequential success of the Fifth International Symposium held online in 2021 with more than 168 delegates from 32 different countries attended virtual amidst the COVID pandemic; we are delighted to announce VI International Symposium – Emerging Technologies and Transition to Circular Economy to be held hybrid (in-person and online) in Stuttgart, Germany, on 4th November 2022.

Our purpose

The VI International Symposium on Emerging Technologies and Transition to Circular Economy intends to explore innovative advances that can address and shepherd the transition to inclusive circular solutions (economy), unlocking the potential to curb emissions for a sustainable future. Emerging technologies and their convergence towards a circular economy paradigm have a transformational effect across global value chains; therefore, M.Sc. WASTE Symposium 2022 aims to provide a platform where international cross-disciplinary professionals come together to share their deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities on environmental topics. Professionals from different sectors will also give an overview of global trends, industries at the forefront of this transition, and how green innovation can be leveraged to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
The circular economy seeks to stimulate economic growth without jeopardizing the environment, positioning itself as a cornerstone for resilient, low-carbon economic recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic (United Nations). Through an ambitious yet pragmatic approach based on scientific evidence, we can accelerate this transformation and enter the era of a new and more sustainable and climate-resilient world.

Core Topics

Current Trends in Emission Control

“Emerging technologies and processes to achieve drawdown in pollutant concentration in the atmosphere.”

Circular Economy and Waste Management

“Addressing the waste (solid and water) challenges through inclusive green initiatives that drive toward a circular economy.”

Sustainable Development Goals and COP 26

“Achieving environmental security in times of multiple global crises – climate change, conflict, pandemic, inequalities, and others.

Testimonial

Don’t take our word for it, hear what our happy Alumni have to say

Helene Mihigo Umubyey

Civil Engineer
Rwanda

As a Civil Engineer, I am keen to design and develop infrastructure that recycles essential natural resources, incorporating environmental protection measures. A well-organized V International Symposium was an insightful and informative platform for me where I developed a whole new perspective on the world’s waste (air, solid, and water) management situation from diverse professional speakers.

Rinusha Maharjan

MSc. WASTE
Nepal

Having an overall perspective, first as an attendee, then organizer, and finally as a speaker, I believe that WASTE International Symposium has surpassed its aims of exchanging knowledge and creating a networking platform for people from all over the world. It provides a medium to express your ideas, receives valuable suggestions from experts attending as international speakers, grow confidence and makes you feel like a part of the M.Sc. WASTE Family.
