HOOP Study Visit Florence

27 November 2024

Biowaste collection in historical centres: engaging the HORECA sector
Florence, Italy

The HOOP project is happy to offer to its members of the Network another exchange opportunity that will allow its participants to dive into different biowaste collection systems (such as door-to-door, smart and underground containers) applied in small and historical centres. Furthermore, the study visit will be focused on engagement measures of the HORECA sector to improve biowaste collection. The HOOP Lighthouse city Albano Laziale and the HOOP member city of Florence, in collaboration with ACR+, will welcome more than 20 interested representatives of the HOOP Network in a full day of presentations, discussions and field visits.

Registrations for this activity have been closed.
