The event was held from 22nd to 24th November 2022. This conference is organized annually by ANEPMA and this year the theme was on promoting reuse culture in Mediterranean Countries. The REUSEMED project was presented on the 23rd November, in which Salvador Gómez explained how it contributes to promote the culture of reuse in 4 Mediterranean countries (Italy, Jordan, Spain and Tunisia) through the development of circuits of reuse.

Moreover, Rafael Pastor, explained the different circuits that have been designed and implemented through the REUSEMED project in Cordoba. Salvador Gómez also presented the APP that is being developed to complement the operation of the circuits in each country.

In addition to the presentation, an exhibition area of REUSEMED was also set up, providing an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the project and its achievements. The REUSEMED project is a collaboration between several partners from different countries, with the lead partner being Sadeco Córdoba from Spain. The project aims to promote the culture of reuse in Mediterranean countries by developing and implementing reuse circuits and an accompanying app.

REUSEMED proposes to create municipal networks based on reuse circuits for home appliances, furniture, books, clothes, Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment and food. To set up the networks, 4 cities in Spain, Italy, Jordan and Tunisia will design and test composting installations, food collection points in markets, repair and reuse centers, reuse corners in shops and repairing cafes.
