Description

Description (EN):

BSB-CIRCLECON deals with spreading the Circular Economy model in the BSB area. A circular economy is explained as an economy ‘where the value of products, materials and resources is maintained in the economy for as long as possible, and the generation of waste minimised’. Turning waste into a resource is an essential part of increasing resource efficiency and closing the loop in a circular economy. The European Commission adopted an action plan in 2015 to help accelerate Europe's transition towards a circular economy, The projects intents to promote the EU CE model, inform on waste prevention, reduction and management and establish a permanent BSB cooperation achieving long-term sustainability of its outputs and results contributing to Priority 2.2. It is in line with the Programme’s S.O.2, as it promotes coordination of environmental protection in a consortium that the quadruple helix is more than present and the partnership includes different thematic roles and expertise who complement each other in order to address the topic from Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Ukraine and Georgia. The structure of the activities addresses to the S.O.s of the project: The 1st S.O. is to present the case for increasing the uptake of the CE in the BSB area, the 2nd S.O. focuses on waste management, reduction and prevention and the 3rd S.O. intents to establish a permanent coordination. New processes and tools are foreseen as to the Management that will minimize the footprint of the project reducing traveling and lowering cost. As to the Implementation GAs, the activities include innovative solutions for addressing the common needs identified and do not contain daily activities of the applicants. BSB-CirclEcon will introduce a new way of working in the BSB area; Regarding Communication, instead of the “traditional” spending on paper, e-publications are suggested and all actions are designed to be environmental friendly Deliverables, outputs and expected results include the establishment of 1 EGTC, one multilingual educational platform leading to a University degree, 20 workshops with EU and local actors, 50 experts to be trained to CE models, 5 studies to enhance knowledge as to address the challenges, 350 organisations and companies to intensively advised, , 6 Organisations with increased capacity in Waste Management, and 1.400 persons to be informed directly. The above are directly contribute to the Programme Result Indicator “R2.2". The partnership is committed as that at least half of the personnel to be hired in the activities of the project will be women, the training will give priority to women representing the 50% out of 50 persons to be trained, all the venues for events will be accessible to persons with disabilities, all events’ supplies will be from recycled only materials, the website will ensure accessibility of information for the visually impaired.

Expected Results (EN): R 2.2 Level of awareness of environmental challenges and good waste management practices related to river and marine litter

Expected Outputs (EN):

The immediate project result is increased awareness on environmental challenges and good waste management practices within Black Sea Basin as a consequence of CE model; more than 60.000 people are expected to be informed, some 1400 to follow informational events, up to 50 experts to be trained to CE models, 350 organisations and companies to intensively advised, 6 organisations to play the role of multipliers and some 10 organisations to be engaged in creating a EGTC in BSB for Circular Economy. The above are directly contribute to the Programme Result Indicator “R 2.2 Level of awareness of environmental challenges and good waste management practices related to river and marine litter” BSB-CIRCLECON is expected to offer opportunities to improve regional BSB economies making them more sustainable and competitive, preserve resources that are increasingly scarce and subject to mounting environmental pressure or volatile prices, and create innovative, more resource efficient ways to provide services or products to customers. In long term, results of proposals dealing with CE adoption will contribute to o reduce soil, river and marine litter o better waste management o reduce landfills, and their associated pollution. o reduction in the total materials requirement o ecodesign, waste prevention and reuse could bring net savings to businesses o less greenhouse gas emissions
