The UKRI National Interdisciplinary Circular Economy Research (NICER) Programme will officially launch on 27th May 2021! The four day event running from 24th – 27th May will introduce the five National Interdisciplinary Circular Economy Centres (24 – 26 May) and the Circular Economy Hub (CE-Hub) which together form the NICER Programme. On Thursday 27th May we will hear from the CE-Hub and delve deeper into the interdisciplinary, cross-cutting working groups and priority areas for the CE-Hub and wider Programme.

The CircularMetals Hub, which is based with the LiME Hub at Brunel University London will be giving an overview of their objectives and work at 10am on Thursday 27 May. Find out more about the CircularMetals Programme on their website.

The NICER Programme is the largest UKRI investment focussing on Circular Economy (CE) to date. The £30 million investment supports five National Interdisciplinary Circular Economy research Centres each focusing on a particular resource flow and an integrating Circular Economy Hub to coordinate, scale and add value to the programme as a whole. Together with your support, we aim to innovate and deliver a step change to the UK Circular Economy (CE) Landscape.
