Closing the Loop: Water and Wastewater Management for a Circular Economy

Growing water demand, climate change, resource constraints and ageing infrastructure are challenging conventional linear approaches to water management. This webinar explores how circular economy and One Water approaches can transform water and wastewater systems through recycling, reuse, decentralised solutions and resource recovery.

Bringing together perspectives from research, industry and practice, the session will examine the technological, governance, regulatory, economic and community challenges to scaling recycled water and circular water solutions. Speakers will share research findings, practical experiences and emerging opportunities, with a focus on strengthening research–industry collaboration and translating innovation into sustainable and resilient water systems across Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.
