ECLECTIC

Cities across the EU have launched a wide range of circular economy (CE) initiatives. Yet, they need robust tools to combine existing and new knowledge, and to bring scientific evidence into action. ECLECTIC aims to enable the design, implementation and monitoring of CE action plans in small and medium-sized EU cities and regions. The project will engage local authorities and municipalities, businesses and civil society in four city-region living labs in Bolzano (Italy), Coimbra (Portugal), Gothenburg (Sweden) and Jonava (Lithuania). It will deliver advanced tools, metrics, and recommendations for decision-makers to carry-out evidence-based sustainable, inclusive, and just CE action plans.
