The Congress

The weaknesses of the current economic, social, and environmental scenario, together with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic that the humankind has been facing for two years now, are increasingly stimulating an in-depth reflection on the organizational models which today’s society is based upon. Those are mainly related to consumers’ behaviors, and to the productive models of businesses and organizations, as well as to the functioning of national and supranational socio-political systems.
Therefore, in the process of restoring stability, it is desirable that any form of circular economy (CE) system derive from the implementation of the relevant issues of sustainability, innovation, and quality not only on the scale of production but, also, on that of use/consumption and disposal. This will make it possible to satisfy di CE principles and loops, and so extend products’ life cycles, and close resource loops through recycling processes.  This is a huge challenge that should follow an approach based on exchanging and sharing knowledge, thereby going beyond the multidisciplinarity and transversality of Commodity Science. The latter can play multiple relevant roles in this regard, as it has been attentive to sustainability, innovation, and quality issues for a long time. The XXX National Congress of Commodity Science is part of this perspective, which intends to bring together the scientific community for moments of discussion and study.
