Safe and sustainable consumer products – insights from the electronics sector: The breakout session aims to bring together experts from policy, research, and industry practice to discuss current developments and practical experiences related to sustainable chemicals management and circularity based on findings in the electronics sector.

The future of plastics - closing the loop on a global material: plastics are the most versatile building blocks of the modern world like consumer products, packaging and construction. To make plastics truly future-proof, in this session we will discuss, how the principles of the circular economy can be applied to the plastics value chain and make plastics sustainable for the current century.

Financing the Chemical Transition – from vision to sound investment: Industry must leave known technologies, identify feasible new processes, and invest massively during the current economic situation. We want to discuss how transformation partnerships and transition plans ensure that industry, financial sector and politics stay on track to our vision of a sustainable chemical industry.

Economy and governance – how can we create a fruitful environment for innovation, competitiveness and sustainability? Who drives the chemical transition – and what does it take to make it happen?

At the CASRI online workshop on 29 January 2026, Environmental Protection Agencies, partners and stakeholders continued the co-design of the SRIA, building on previous prioritisation work to refine selected topics through plenary discussions, assess their relevance and added value, and support alignment, convergence and preparation for the next in-person meeting in Paris.

Our demands on the use of space are increasing. It is therefore important to plan with the future in mind. Sustainable planning and development of spatial and settlement structures aims to harmonize the social and economic demands on space with the protection of the environment.
