Oulo workshop 2023
The Oulu region in north Finland is internationally known as an ICT and technology development powerhouse, but also as a know-how centre of waste management. In March 2023, WANO organized a cross-border workshop between the waste management
actors in north Norway and north Finland. The objective was to share
experiences in waste management and to explore the possibilities to cross-border waste management cooperation. The WANO workshop was attended by the WANO partners Remiks, HRS, and NORCE, and the Oulu-based waste management actors Hauru, Wastebook, Macon, and the PrintoCent cluster.
