CATHERINE DE WOLF: NEVER FOREVER - LEARNING FROM THE PAST AND FUTURE TOWARDS A REGENERATIVE 5.0

About the talk

In Switzerland and elsewhere, 80% of waste is generated by the construction industry. Hence, Catherine de Wolf argues, it is urgent to replace current use-and-dispose methods by a circular system which optimizes material use and cost-efficient recycling. She points to pre-existing models in history, culture, and nature and explains the need for alternative materials.

“I want to create a Tinder for re-use.”
