Indian Conference on Life Cycle Management

There are many ways to contribute to sustainable consumption and production and taking a life cycle perspective is one of the key strategies to address it in a holistic way. Life Cycle Management (LCM) is an approach that can be used by any organization to improve overall sustainability performance including their value chain. Worldwide Life Cycle Assessment and Management (LCA/M) is playing an increasingly important role in guiding and shaping business operations, management practices and strategic decision making. ILCM is an Indian event at which the global LCA community congregates and it is an excellent platform to communicate with different stakeholders, including international experts and Indian industry. The platform is all the more relevant as technical issues relevant to the host country drive the ILCM agenda. In this context, FICCI’s flagship event-Indian Conference on Life Cycle Management in 2012 was launched to mainstream LCM and LCA based approaches among various stakeholder groups in India – government, industry, academia and non government organizations.

The Fourth edition of Indian Conference on Life Cycle Management (ILCM 2015) will be held in New Delhi from 14-15 September 2015 back to back to ISO TC 207 meeting.
