The Circular Wallonia Days 2025 is a two-day international event designed to connect European regional ecosystems involved in the circular materials value chain in construction.
The event will take place on 21 and 22 May 2025 in Mons, Wallonia, Belgium.
This is an opportunity for all stakeholders in the circular mineral value chain to present and exchange best practices and experiences in order to address one of Europe’s greatest challenges: achieving strategic autonomy for mineral materials.
As Wallonia takes over the presidency of the Greater Region* for 2025-2026, it is seizing this opportunity to hold discussions on achieving true mineral circularity with all EU regions.
As a region at the forefront of innovation and home to pioneering initiatives in mineral circularity, Wallonia offers a unique opportunity for the European mineral industry to engage in collaborative and innovative projects in the circular mineral value chain.
*The Greater Region comprises the provinces of Liège and Luxembourg in Wallonia (Belgium), French Lorraine, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and the two German states of Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland.
