It demonstrates how advanced circular technologies can be applied to transform destruction into opportunity. During the webinar by ReThink, speakers will explain the importance of circular reconstruction for Ukraine and beyond, share insights from the S3 consortium pioneering circular concrete recycling, and discuss how innovation, research, and leadership are shaping a new, sustainable construction sector.
