3rd CCRI webinar: Monitoring the Transition to Circular Economy
The 3rd CCRI webinar on Monitoring the Transition to Circular Economy, will be held online on the 7th of February. Registration closes on the the 6th of February.
A2C is EU project boosting the upcycling of agri-food wastes (from F&V and MPF) through innovative routes of valorisation, leading to high extraction yields, bioactives with the purity and stability required to be used for the production of new food, cosmetic and nutraceutical formulation.
The whole process and products will be traceable through an innovative ICT platform functioning as predictive tool for decision support (DIS – data integration system).
Reducing the consumption of primary materials (fossil, biomass and metal ores) in >13,000 ktonnes
Improve sustainability and circularity of clusters’ economic sectors, natural ecosystems, management and valorisation of local resources
Decreasing >27,000 ktonnes CO2 eq emissions
15 new key exploitable results and >30 new circular business models, generating a turnover of 166.8M€
Job creation: short term (26) -> medium term (295) -> through replication (590-2655)
>30 business ideas and establishment of >100 local alliances
This circular approach will be shaped around a multidimensional model enabling adoption and scalability of territorial systemic solutions while being sustainable, regenerative, inclusive, fair, boosting urban®ional economies, empowering all actors (citizens, industries, decision makers, academia) and fostering circular practices.
The A2C approach will be tested in the Región de Murcia (Spain) and replicated in other two other EU countries (Italy and Lithuania), backed up by a circular business model and strong public engagement and co-creation processes, maximizing replicability and scalability.
The 3rd CCRI webinar on Monitoring the Transition to Circular Economy, will be held online on the 7th of February. Registration closes on the the 6th of February.
Circular Game is an initiative from the EU project Agro2Circular to teach young people about circular economy in a fun and engaging way.
