How can we, as neighbours in local communities, live our lives in a smarter, more circular fashion? How can technology provide support towards behavioural change when it comes to our use of energy, water, waste & materials? These and other questions underpinned the Circular South project in Antwerp (Belgium). Circular South is a project bringing together expertise from 8 partners: the City of Antwerp, VITO/Energyville, IMEC, Ecopower, EnergieID, Kringwinkel Antwerpen, Digipolis & Pantopicon, and was supported by the Urban Innovative Actions programme of the European Union. In this podcast we link some of Circular South's key topics & interests with the work and knowledge of distinguished guests equally aiming to boost circularity in our society.
