  The European Green Deal covers all sectors of the economy, including transport, energy, agriculture, buildings and industries such as steel, cement, ICT, materials, textiles and chemicals. Within the EU's monitoring framework for the circular economy, 5 thematic areas receive particular attention: (1) production and consumption patterns, (2) waste management, (3) secondary raw materials, (4) competitiveness and innovation, 5) global sustainability and resilience. Numerous indicators are now used to assess the material footprint, resource productivity, total waste production per capita, municipal waste production, share of plastic in packaging waste, waste recycling rates, contribution of recycled materials to the demand for raw materials, end-of-life recycling rates for raw materials, private investment and employment in circular economy sectors, patents relating to waste management and recycling, dependence on imported materials and EU self-sufficiency in raw materials. Since 2021, the European Commission has focused on two important pillars of the circular economy: eco-design and packaging reduction. Ecodesign (SsbD : Safe and sustainable by-design) is at the heart of goods production, aiming for sustainable product design with an emphasis on improving repairability, reuse and recycling, reducing the presence of hazardous substances, strengthening consumer information or even banning programmed obsolescence. The packaging issue can be summed up in a few figures: 180 kg of packaging waste is produced by each European citizen per year, and almost 40% plastic and 50% paper are used in packaging production in Europe. The aim is not only to introduce sustainability requirements for packaging and labeling standards, but also to impose restrictions on the use of plastic bags (target consumption of 40 plastic bags per person per year by December 31, 2025).

The "Green Deal, Circular Economy and Industrial Ecology" symposium aims to look at research, experimentation and evaluation of circular economy projects and industrial ecology case studies related to the EU Green Deal.  All the informations (program, maps, registration...) of the symposium are available on the website :  https://greendeal2024.sciencesconf.org
