Kick off Circular Economy Month the right way

Be part of a special evening to raise awareness about Alberta's circularity gap, learn how you can support a strong circular economy, and connect with other changemakers who see the hidden value in our waste.

Live Performance by The Aquativity Project

The Aquativity Project is a youth-led initiative, have curated a special performance where we get to see how the circular economy and clothing come together. Using upcycled materials, this group is committed to bringing a circular lens to fashion in Calgary.

After the performance they will be hosting a booth to show you how you can turn old materials in your home into timeless pieces.

Let's talk about Alberta's circularity gap.

Our waste is only increasing, and we need more initiatives that see value in our waste and its second, third, and fourth uses. Building Strong is an opportunity to connect and engage in critical conversations about our circular economy.
