We are excited to announce that the 2nd Global Cleaner Production Conference (GCPC) will take place from 26-29 October 2026 in Melia Sitges, Spain.

The pressures on natural systems are intensifying, driven by industrial practices and consumption models that exceed environmental limits. Cleaner production offers a strategic pathway to minimize environmental impact while promoting efficiency, innovation, and circularity across sectors.

Achieving this transformation requires a global effort—bringing together policymakers, researchers, industry, and society—to rethink production processes and evolve toward models that support long-term ecological balance and social well-being.

With engaging plenary sessions, interactive workshops, and insightful editorial panel discussions, the 2nd GCPC promises an enriching experience for all participants!
