Programmes Digital Europe CybersecurityThe European Union has gradually adopted several initiatives to strengthen cybersecurity and protect its
digital ecosystem. As part of the Digital Decade, the European Commission presented a new European Cybersecurity Strategy in December 2020. This strategy aims to build a powerful and resilient digital Europe by 2030. The strategy underlines the importance of integrating cybersecurity into every stage of the digital transition, considering resilience and security as essential elements for a successful transformation.
Knowledge of underlying EU policies and legislations is a key element in Digital Europe proposals as they play an important role in the “relevance” evaluation criterion. This Policy Briefing is one of several briefings prepared by DEP4ALL, the NCP Network for the Digital Europe programme, to support applicants with summaries of relevant EU initiatives.

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.
