 Panel discussion:  

  •  Is the Circular Electronics Initiative ambitious enough to achieve full circularity in the ICT sector?     
  • What products should be prioritized when it comes to establishing a right to repair for consumers? Are certain areas off-limits or more difficult to accommodate implementation?    
  • To what extent could digital product passports complement this initiative, and what other legislative options do policymakers have of to achieve circularity?
