Enhancing EU R&I Missions Horizon Europe

The Polish National Centre for Research and Development (NCBR) and Business and Science Poland (BSP) offices in Brussels organise a talk with Mr. Bruno Maquart, President of the European Network of Science Centres and Museums (ECSITE) and Chairman & CEO of Universcience. The topic of the talk is citizens’ engagement in research & innovation, more specifically in the EU Missions and Horizon Europe, and questions that will be tackled are:

  1. What are the benefits of citizens’ engagement?
  2. How to draw the attention of the EU citizens and engage them in participation in science research and innovation, and in the policy-making processes?
  3. Overloading citizens with surveys and consultations can lead to disengagement. What actions should we consider to avoid citizen fatigue?
  4. How to measure the impact of citizens’ engagement accurately to secure the best quality?
  5. What are the best examples of the activities of the citizens’ engagement based on the ECSITE experience?

Registration for the talk is required by 26 September. In the registration form you can indicate the type of presence (at the venue or online) and submit questions for the speaker.

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
