SUMMARY:MAGNO Workshop on Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD)
DESCRIPTION:MAGNO is pleased to announce an upcoming online workshop dedicated to Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD)\, taking place on 30 September 2026. \n\n\n\nThe workshop is being organised by Kveloce\, a partner of the MAGNO project with extensive expertise in Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD) and sustainability-driven innovation. As part of its activities within MAGNO\, Kveloce is leading the organisation of this event to foster dialogue and knowledge exchange around the SSbD framework. \n\n\n\nThe event is organised in collaboration with IRISS (International ecosystem accelerating the transition to Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design chemicals\, processes\, materials and products)\, bringing together expertise from both initiatives to explore the role of SSbD in advancing more sustainable and circular systems. \n\n\n\nThe workshop will provide an opportunity to learn more about the Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design approach\, exchange knowledge with experts and stakeholders\, and discuss its relevance for innovation in food packaging and the broader transition towards a circular economy. \n\n\n\nRegistration link: MAGNO Workshop on Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD) \n\n\n\nDate: 30 September 2026 – 10:00-12:00 \n\n\n\nFormat: Online \n\n\n\nAGENDA: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:00 – 10:15 Welcome and introduction (5 min) MAGNO Project (10 Min)Alejandra Pita (IDENER)10:15 – 10:35 Session 1 – How Digital Tools Can Shape LCA-s (20 min)Alejandra Pita (IDENER)10:35 – 10:45 Session 2 – Social assessment in SSbD: key updates from the 2025 JRC Framework revision and EC Recommendation 2026 (10 min) Lucia Mancini (JCR ISPRA) and Giulio Bracalente (JCR ISPRA) 10:55 – 11:05 Session 3 – SO-LCA and product S-LCA as complementary approaches across the innovation cycle (20 min) Gabriela Munares (Kveloce)11:05 – 11:25 Debate – Sustainability life-cycle assessment as a driver for acceptance and behaviour change (20 min) Mod: Gabriela Munares (Kveloce)Alejandra PitaGiulio BracalenteJutta HildenbrandLucia ManciniMaite Ferrando11:25 – 11:35 Q&A (10 min) Gabriela Munares (Kveloce)11:35 – 11:40 Closure (10 min) Alejandra Pita (IDENER)\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nDESCRIPTION OF THE SESSIONS: \n\n\n\nSession 1 – How Digital Tools Can Shape Life Cycle Assessment\n\n\n\nThis session will explore how digital tools can strengthen Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) by integrating data\, modelling and scenario analysis across complex food packaging value chains. Using the MAGNO Ecosystem Digital Twin (eDT) as a practical example\, the session will present how digital modelling can represent the entire packaging lifecycle\, from design and manufacturing to logistics\, consumer behaviour and end-of-life management. Participants will discover how the eDT combines industrial data\, scientific knowledge and AI-supported information to evaluate the environmental and functional performance of packaging systems. The session will also discuss how this approach can support more informed sustainability decisions by comparing alternative circular packaging strategies and assessing the trade-offs between different solutions before implementation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSession 2 – Social assessment in SSbD: key updates from the 2025 JRC Framework revision and EC Recommendation 2026\n\n\n\nThis session will present the latest developments in the Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD) framework\, focusing on the recent 2025 JRC Framework revision and the 2026 European Commission Recommendation. Participants will gain an overview of the evolving European policy landscape and explore how these updates strengthen the integration of social sustainability within the SSbD approach. The session will provide valuable context for researchers\, innovators and practitioners\, highlighting the latest guidance and its implications for the development and assessment of safer and more sustainable chemicals\, materials and products. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSession 3 – SO-LCA and product S-LCA as complementary approaches across the innovation cycle\n\n\n\nThis session will explore the practical challenges of implementing the social dimension of Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD) across research and innovation projects. Drawing on experiences from several Horizon Europe initiatives\, it will examine how Social Life Cycle Assessment (S-LCA) can be applied at different stages of technological development\, particularly in early-stage projects where product-level assessments are often difficult to perform due to limited data availability. The session will also introduce Organisational Social Life Cycle Assessment (SO-LCA) as a complementary approach\, discussing its potential to support social sustainability assessment when product-level methodologies are not yet feasible. By comparing both perspectives\, participants will be invited to reflect on how different assessment approaches can contribute to more effective and actionable SSbD implementation throughout the innovation cycle. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPanel Discussion – Sustainability Assessment as a Driver for Acceptance and Behaviour Change\n\n\n\nThis panel discussion will explore how sustainability assessments can become powerful tools not only for guiding product design\, but also for building trust and supporting stakeholder engagement. Drawing on experiences from Horizon Europe projects\, the session will examine how the results of environmental\, economic and social assessments can be communicated more effectively to consumers\, public authorities\, retailers and other stakeholders. Participants will discuss how sustainability evidence can move beyond technical reporting to become a driver of responsible innovation\, market acceptance and behaviour change\, as well as the role of digital platforms in making sustainability information more accessible and meaningful to non-specialist audiences. \n\n\n\nPANELISTS: \n\n\n\n\nAlejandra Pita \n\n\n\nAlejandra Pita Milleiro is the Coordinator of the Horizon Europe project MAGNO and Innovation Manager at IDENER.AI.
