Deliverables

Documents, reports (4)

The state of the art of stakeholders in waste and recycling in regions

This deliverable will include a stakeholder map on the value chain of material flows in regions outcome of tasks 11 and the report part on the regional readiness for a systemic territorial circular solution outcome of task 12 and will provide the analysis of the state of the art in regionsA systematic study of the international interdisciplinary stateoftheart concerning consumer attitudes sustainablerecycling behaviour and conditions that fosterhamper such behaviour will be presented that will increase the regional knowledge base of task 11 This task functions as the contextual preliminary and identifies stakeholders and relevant preferences and mentalities of consumers via systematic database research in fields of science social sciences law and psychology

Stakeholder map and regional readiness for a systemic territorial circular solution

The deliverable will summarise the outcomes ot Task 11 and 12 and will lay foundations for the remaining tasks in WP1 The document will present the regional biographies for the pilot region and the two follower regions It will cover historical cultural and socioeconomic factors on the cooperation on cocreation of hubs for circularityIt will cover the results of analytical casestudy covering consumer and stakeholder preferences policy structures and regulations via a comprehensive toolbox of approaches such as desktop research qualitative interviews SWOT and PESTLE to identify factors and structures that fosterhamper cooperation

Design of the systemic modelling and analysis framework

The deliverable contains a description of the specification and of the system design and first simulation results for a simplified model of a circular system from waste collection to chemical recycling Related to Task 71 It will be basis for the remaing tasks in the WP

Initial Communication and Dissemination Plan

This Deliverable will outline the planning of dissemination and communication activities to serve defined specific target groups It will be an overall strategy leaving the necessary flexibility for the implementation in order to be able to react to the developments and collocate project communications to any relevant activities arising outside to get best possible synergiesOutcome of Task 81 related to all tasks in the project

Demonstrators, pilots, prototypes (3)

Prototype of improved metal panels / envelopes
