Business leaders, decision-makers, industry and government regulators in the Safety, Health and Environment (HSE) sector will, on September 4, virtually lead discussions on solving waste problem in Nigeria and Africa at the second edition of the HSE summit.
In a statement by George Ashiru, spokesman of the summit, the theme of the event: ‘Recycling to Wealth,’ will be delineated into four topic categories: Environment/ Sustainability; Waste Management; Health and Safety; and Commercial to provide a platform for fresh thinking, lively discussion and a scan of the safety and health horizon in Nigeria and Africa.
“These topics will be expansively discussed to unmask the enormous opportunities that are in changing physical, biological and physiochemical state of waste to an innovatively produced new raw material or product,” he said.
He added that the decision to host the event virtually is based on the reality of the new normal caused by the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Interested participants are enjoined to register to attend via https://hsesummit.com/register/.
