The Info Days will present the Research & Innovation (R&I) topics of the Horizon Europe Cluster 6 (Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment) Work Programme 2022 and give prospective applicants the opportunity to learn more about circular economy and bioeconomy related funding opportunities.

On 26 October from 9:00 to 11:30 CEST, the session will present Cluster 6 topics under Destination 3 - Circular economy and bioeconomy - which target climate-neutral circular and bioeconomy transitions, covering safe integrated circular solutions for important material flows and product value chains, such as textile, electronics, plastics and construction, as well as key bioeconomy sectors like sustainable bio-based systems, sustainable forestry, small-scale rural bio-based solutions, and aquatic value chains.

In so doing, Destination 3 supports the European Green Deal, and other European initiatives such as the Industrial Strategy, SME Strategy, Circular Economy Action Plan, Bioeconomy Strategy, Biodiversity Strategy, Farm to Fork Strategy, Textile Strategy, Plastics Strategy, the Action Plan on Critical Raw Materials, and the Forest Strategy.

The event will be followed by a brokerage event on 27 October to bring together potential applicants and stakeholders of the new R&I programme. Circular economy stakeholders may also be interested in attending other thematic and/or horizontal sessions.
