THE GLOBAL REUSE SUMMIT
Taking place on June 16th 2023, the ‘Global Reuse Summit’ was a free digital event for change-makers, business leaders, policy makers and innovators to learn, share and be inspired as we united to drive the transition from single-use to reuse, and tackle the global plastic and climate crisis we currently face.
Hosted LIVE by City to Sea founder and award-winning campaigner and author Natalie Fée, we embarked on a journey to create a shared vision of the future we want and need to see.
The Global Reuse Summit takes place on World Refill Day – a global day of action to help people live with less waste.
