Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a rapidly evolving tool used to determine impacts of products or systems over a range of environmental and resource issues. Applying this method of assessment is complex and difficult and translating the theory into a credible, transparent and applicable practice can be very challenging.<\/p>\n
This short course, developed in collaboration with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, consists of two parts. You can book both parts together, or choose to do part 1 or 2 only.<\/p>\n
In Part 1 (two days), you’ll develop a solid understanding of the process, data requirements and how to make use of the results<\/strong>. You’ll then get the chance to apply this knowledge to real-life case studies.<\/p>\n In Part 2 (two days), you’ll learn how to apply systems thinking and LCA to assess environmental dimension of circular economy<\/strong> and how LCA can help track performance and prioritize actions relating circular economy programmes in organisations.<\/p>\n For more information, please visit the website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a rapidly evolving tool used to determine impacts of products or systems over a range of environmental and resource issues.
