ORIENTING LCSA methodology stakeholders’ workshop

On June 30th the workshop for our stakeholders took place, to discuss the main results of the open consultation process and discuss on the ORIENTING LCSA methodology. As we announced in the last news, this process was launched on May 5th and ended on June 3rd. Since then, the ORIENTING team has processed the comments and suggestions to focus on the most relevant points.

The workshop was divided into two parts. The first one presented the draft ORIENTING LCSA methodology in more detail and the key points emerged from the consultation. The second one was a brainstorm session on the main themes of the consultation and a great moment for our stakeholders to interact and express their opinions.

The second part consisted of a brainstorming session in which all participants were invited to express their opinions and doubts directly to the team working on the methodology. The main outcomes of the second part of the workshop that were discussed were:

  • The Multi-level approach
  • The Environmental assessment
  • Circularity in LCSA methodology
  • Criticality in LCSA methodology
  • The Life Cycle Costing
  • The Social Life Cycle assessment
  • The Integration in LCSA methodology

If you wanted to attend the workshop but were unable to attend or are interested in watching the session, we have recorded the entire event. You can watch it here. In addition, you can download the presentation slides here.
