Motivation

Over the past years, openLCA has been developed further and further, as a stand-alone tool but also as a solution for other sustainability tools and add-ons. Other surrounding tools, like the LCA Collaboration Server, have helped collaboration between LCA practitioners but have also allowed for the work and publication of databases such as the LCA Commons by the USDA. At the same time, thanks to its low acquisition barrier and available resources, many people across the world have used openLCA for LCA studies, projects and research.

It was our pleasure to bring all of these faces of openLCA together in the openLCA.conf, a conference for openLCA users, where the deep exchange of insights and ideas in the openLCA and LCA space was facilitated.

Venue

Hotel Rossi was chosen to host our conference in April 2024. The location created an intimate and inclusive environment and was very easy to reach, being at a walking distance from Berlin’s central train station: Lehrter Straße 66, 10557 Berlin

Hotel Rossi is an inclusive hotel where staff with and without disabilities work together as equals to ensure you have a pleasant stay. The hotel is also an initiative of SOS Children’s Village and is located in the Embassy for Children.
