Canadian Zero Waste Leader to Represent Nation at Global Sustainability Forum

HSR Zero Waste President Jamie Kaminski has been invited to participate as a partner organization at the Global Zero Waste Forum 2025, hosted by the Zero Waste Foundation in Istanbul, Türkiye. This international recognition underscores Canada's emerging role in the global sustainability movement and the importance of cross-border collaboration in addressing waste management challenges.

The Global Zero Waste Forum serves as a critical platform for international sustainability leaders, policymakers, and innovators to advance discussions on the Zero Waste Hierarchy, responsible resource management, and circular economy solutions. Kaminski's participation represents a significant opportunity for Canadian perspectives to contribute to global sustainability dialogues.
