Challenge 'Climate Action, Environment, Resource efficiency and Raw Materials'
sub challenge 'Enabling the transition towards a green economy through eco-
innovation'
all forms of innovation, both incremental and radical, combining technological, organisational,
societal, behavioural, business and policy innovation, and strengthening the participation of civil society, in order to underpin a more circular economy, while reducing environmental impacts
and taking account of rebound effects on the environment
Research and Innovation
Our Vision
SYSTEMIC ECO-INNOVATION
when all societal stakeholders generate and share economic and environmental
benefits and
where all kind of innovations are addressed in combination with new
organisational and managerial arrangements

Research and Innovation
Systemic challenges require systemic solutions
● cross sectoral
● multi-stakeholders
● innovation in all forms
● design strategies
● circular models
● incremental -> transformative
● product -> services
● owning->sharing
● waste -> resources
● depletive -> regenerative

Systemic eco-innovation in the Circular Economy
CIRC-01: Systemic, eco-innovative approaches for the circular economy: large-scale demonstration projects
CIRC-02: Water in the context of the circular economy
CIRC-04: New models & economic incentives for circular economy business
Circular economy, systemic eco-innovation: 2016 topics
• CIRC-01-2016: Systemic, eco-innovative approaches for the circular economy: large-scale demonstration projects (IA) - Design for circular value and supply chains
• Scope to test and showcase circular economy solutions to re-design the overall chains from resources to marketed
products, including production processes and/or systems, as well as with the involvement of end-users
• Expected impacts improving resource efficiency, the optimisation of production, and
reducing the generation of waste the creation of business opportunities, exploiting EU eco-innovative
solutions, and demonstrating their economic, social, and environmental sustainability
evidence-based knowledge for enabling framework conditions that facilitate a transition to the circular economy
