RU 2025 Call for Presentations, Speakers and Topic Nominations

Application form closes November 15, 2024 Form below.

NCRA is seeking speakers for the 2025 Recycling Update (RU) to share what is new and different in all aspects of waste reduction and Zero Waste. We especially invite speakers who have not yet presented at this dynamic, fast paced event.

Join over 500 attendees – in-person and on-line, from local government recycling staff, policy makers, consultants, haulers and processors from across Northern California.
 
All speakers have ***10 minutes*** for their presentation plus 2 minutes for questions.  One advantage is that everyone in attendance will hear your ideas – no breakouts or tracks.

We run a pretty tight ship, so it’s important that each speaker be well prepared, and stay within their allotted time.

All presentations must reflect NCRA’s commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Please make a conscious effort to address these issues as you prepare your submissions, both in textual and graphic elements. In addition, the selection committee encourages proposals focused on SB 1383 implementation and Reuse & Repair.

Speakers receive free registration as well as an optional one year of membership.  For additional information, please use the form to ask questions.
