CIWM (the Chartered Institution of Wastes Management) has partnered with Content With Purpose (CWP) to produce a wide-ranging digital series, Leading The Way To a World Beyond Waste, exploring the resources and waste sector’s role as a vital change agent for the transition to a low-carbon, resource efficient, circular economy.
