In particular, we will be exploring the work of so-called \u201cRoma green agents\u201d in North Macedonia, who provide an environmental service to the municipality yet formally recognised. We will also use the event to provide a new narrative that recognises the service that these green agents provide.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, we will use the event to present the results of our project on the informal recycling sector in North Macedonia and the project learnings; we will present the conclusions of our research and recommendations; and we will call on decision-makers to take action on a national level by including waste collectors as a formal part of municipal waste management plans; and at EU level by considering the impact of EU policies on waste collectors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When:\u00a0<\/strong>February 21, 2023<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hour:<\/strong> 15:00 \u2013 17:00 Central European Time (CET)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where: <\/strong><strong style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Residence Palace &#8211; Mealbeek Room,<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"> 155 Rue de la Loi 1040 Brussels<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Remote connection will be possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"detail__heading\">\n<h3 id=\"location-heading\"><\/h3>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An event on environmental justice and the informal recycling sector, in cooperation with REDI, UWD, and funded by the Austrian ministry. 21 February, 15:00-17:00 CET Please<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"author":88,"featured_media":109345,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[193],"tags":[196],"class_list":["post-109342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-past-event","tag-events"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Circular-Economy-events.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/88"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=109342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/109345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=109342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=109342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eeb.org\/hu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=109342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
