INTHERWASTE EU FLAG

The INTHERWASTE project Interregional Environmental Integration of Waste Management in European Heritage Cities –, aimed to foster the exchange of experience and polices for efficient and sustainable waste management in European Heritage Cities.

Project funded under the European Regional Development Fund.

 

Highlights

The final conference of the Interreg Europe INTHERWASTE project took place online on 4 February 2021, with a high number of stakeholders attending. The first panel featured the project’s five pilot cities, and the second brought in a set of well-established good practices. The conclusions showed the importance of revisiting and modifying waste management strategies and operational practices in order to facilitate circular economy loops having tangible interconnections with daily life. ACR+ supported the alignment of long-term solutions to local reality and needs.

Urban REC 3 ENG small

The URBANREC project – new approaches for the valorisation of URBAN bulky waste into high added value RECycled products – aimed to develop and implement an eco-innovative and integral bulky waste management system (enhancing prevention, improving logistics and allowing new waste treatments to obtain high added value recycled products) and demonstrate its effectiveness in different regions.

Project co-funded by the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 programme, 2016 - 2020.

 

Highlights

November 2019 marked the end of the H2020 URBANREC project and the release of its final results. In addition to the policy recommendations and the demonstrators presented during the project final conference, URBANREC delivered comprehensive guidelines on bulky waste management and knowledge transfer activities, thanks to its regional training sessions, and an online interactive tool and e-learning modules on bulky waste management
The final conference was followed by a working group workshop specifically targetting regional and local authorities where participants discussed the challenges of re-use and recycling of urban bulky waste. The main takeaways are summarised here.

ACR PPI4Waste Logotype RVB Full

The PPI4Waste project – Promotion of Public Procurement of Innovation for Resource Efficiency and Waste Treatment – explored mechanisms to overcome barriers to public procurement of innovation in the waste sector.
Project co-funded by the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 programme, 2015 - 2017.

The PPI4Waste project showed that more cooperation was needed to support public procurement of innovation (PPI) and help increase the uptake of innovative solutions for waste management. Cooperation can indeed facilitate transfer knowledge on PPI, but also lead to concrete coordinated or joint tenders that will reduce costs and risks. The project brought some answers and solutions to these barriers to an uptake of PPI in the waste sector.

PPI4Waste, what’s in for me:

as a public authority?
as a private company?

WINPOL Full Medium

The WINPOL project Waste Management Intelligent Systems and Policies – aimed to improve regional and local waste management processes by promoting intelligent equipment and innovative planning derived from it in order to minimise waste generation and increase the efficiency of waste management processes.

Project funded under the European Regional Development Fund. 2018 - 2022

 

Highlights

The WINPOL final conference tackled the role of innovation in waste management, especially to successfully transition to a circular economy in Europe. It was the occasion to discuss not only the successes achieved at project level, now that the project is closing, but also the progresses made in the use of intelligent systems and policies in waste management. It included two main sessions combining project partners telling their experience and invited speakers – from Amsterdam, Bergen, Catalonia, and the Life REthinkWASTE project – presenting their innovative practices.
