Programmes Enhancing EU R&IThis monitoring report presents an overview of gender equality in EU R&I programmes, particularly in Horizon Europe. It focuses both on main indicators of equality within the programme – such as gender balance of research teams, leading positions, expert evaluations and expert groups – and then on how concretely the programme addresses the issue of gender equality in R&I, such as through requesting adoption of Gender Equality Plans, promoting gender mainstreaming in research, and addressing gender gaps in innovative entrepreneurship.

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.
