Roberta Salomone is Full Professor of Commodity Science at the University of Messina, Department of Economics, Italy.  She holds a Ph.D. in “Technology and Economics of Processes and Products for the Environmental Safeguard" (University of Catania, Italy). She participated to various research groups, also as national coordinator and she is, actually, author of more than 130 publications on national and international scientific journals, books and proceedings. She teaches Quality and Environmental Management, Industrial Ecology and Sustainability Management in bachelors, master degree, PhD courses and specialization courses. Her research is mainly on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and other environmental assessment and management systems and tools, Quality Management and Environmental Management, Industrial Ecology and Industrial Symbiosis and Circular Economy. She is member of the Board of the International Sustainable Development Research Society (ISDRS) from 01/01/2019.Andrea Cecchin is a researcher and practitioner in the fields of sustainable development, circular economy, waste management, environmental assessment, urban planning and community engagement. He holds a PhD in environmental sciences from Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Italy, and he is currently a postdoctoral research fellow at the Plant Sciences Department, North Dakota State University, USA, and an adjunct assistant professor at the Earth System Science & Policy Department, University of North Dakota, USA. Cecchin serves as a member of the International Sustainable Development Research Society, where he co-leads the working group “Circular Economy, Zero Waste and Innovation”. As researcher and consultant, he has worked in Europe, South and North America. He is an expert in designing and carrying out transdisciplinary action research projects, where stakeholders and local communities are actively engaged in the research process. Currently, he is leadinga research project where wastes are used as construction materials in low-income communities to improve the resilience of human settlements to natural disasters.Pauline Deutz is a Reader in Human Geography in the Department of Geography, Geology and Environment at the University of Hull, UK.  Following on from a multi-disciplinary training, with degrees in Geography and Geology, her research takes an interdisciplinary social science approach to the co-ordination of environmental issues with other social-economic priorities. Examples include: incorporation of industrial ecology/circular economy principles into economic development & resource management; integration of eco-design in product design; building the capacity for sustainability in waste management.  Currently she is coordinating the EU Marie Skłodowska Curie Innovative Training Network ‘Cresting: Circular Economy: sustainability implications and guiding progress’.  She is also the co-PI of ‘Evolving a Circular Plastics Economy’ funded by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. Following six years as vice president of ISDRS, Pauline is President of ISDRS for 2019-2020.Andrea Raggi is full professor of Industrial Ecology and related issues at the Dept. of Economic Studies, University “G. d’Annunzio”, Pescara, Italy. For 3 decades, he has carried out academic research and teaching. His research perspective includes environmental management systems, life cycle sustainability assessment, industrial ecology. His research is mainly of an interdisciplinary nature, also involving engagement with stakeholders (mainly industry); he has participated in various research projects involving multi- and inter-disciplinary collaborations, both at a national and international level. He has authored or co-authored more than 200 publications in national or international books, journals and conference proceedings.Laura Cutaia is is a researchear at the Italian National Agency for New Technologies Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) with a background in raw materials engineering. Her research topics include Industrial Symbiosis and Technology for raw and secondary materials treatment among others. She is responsible for the Resources Valorisation Laboratory at ENEA, working on: circular economy and resource efficiency, LCA, environmental certification schemes, REACH and sustainable industrial areas. She is part of the Coordination Group of the European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform (ECESP) and she is President of the UNI CT 057 on Circular Economy.
