The LIFE Awards are held during EU Green Week and honour pioneering projects across Europe which restore habitats and wildlife, boost circularity and help strengthen climate resilience. See which projects did well in the Circular Economy and Quality of Life, and new Rising Star Recognition categories!
Cities, regions and other project promoters working on circular solutions at local level often find it difficult to scale up their project and attract investment.
This CCRI webinar will present advisory services which will help.
EU policies require effective data and analyses, which are provided by Eurostat. This data is extremely useful for seeing how waste and the circular economy in the EU are evolving. Eurostat data on food waste, packaging and municipal waste paint a vivid picture. Part of it is good, other parts definitely less so.
To achieve a truly circular economy, citizen engagement must move from the margins to the mainstream. This EU Circular Talk will explore how we can embed circular thinking into everyday life through communication, education and practical tools that empower people to act.
Join us as we examine practical pathways to build understanding, shift mindsets and accelerate the circular transition—one citizen at a time.

make use of resources related to the implementation of urban circular bioeconomy solutions, including handbooks, manuals, factsheets and videos on technologies and financial engineering for circular bioeconomy projects.
get technical support from project developers and investors and mobilise green financing.
register for the forum and put questions to the circular bioeconomy community.
