The ENDURANCE project has produced a handbook setting out a green acceleration methodology with defined, transferable and effective acceleration scenarios. These will serve as a roadmap for other European clusters, regardless of their sector of industrial activity.
The aim is to promote the transition towards a clean, circular and climate-neutral economy.
As part of the Cooperative Partnership Erasmus+ IDEA (Improved Employability through Circular Economy Education for Adults) project, the partners have designed a comprehensive set of educational materials and platforms to assist educators with training unemployed adults (45+).
This guide is intended primarily for building owners. It presents several pathways for integrating the principles of reusing building materials in construction and renovation projects.
Businesses need financing, and banks need to know whether a given company is a good risk. The Risk project group (part of De Nederlandsche Bank's Circular Economy Working Group and consisting of experts from Rabobank, ABN AMRO, ING, Triodos and Invest-NL) set out to create a scorecard which would enable financial institutions to establish whether a specifically circular business is a good bet.
The IDEA Guide is a valuable resource for adult educators and institutions and includes tools and methodologies applicable to organisations and their work with the target group. Highlighting national and European good practices, it emphasises ways to integrate circular principles through arts, crafts and non-formal education methods.
The Circular Economy Resource Information System (CE-RISE) is an EU-funded project aiming to optimise raw material reuse and recovery in electronic products.

Intesa Sanpaolo has worked with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation to identify criteria for assessing the level of circularity of the initiatives proposed by companies. It has issued a new Circular Economy Plafond of EUR 8 billion for the green and circular economy.
Are you looking for ways to finance circular economy projects? The European Commission has launched the multi-annual call for proposals of the Public Sector Loan Facility (PSLF) under the Just Transition Mechanism.
PSLF supports the transition towards a climate-neutral economy leaving no one behind. A wide range of sectors, among which circular economy, are eligible for funding.
The Circular Economy Competence Framework for Young People is the outcome of research by the Circular Economy-Sustainable Competences for Youth (CESCY) project team. The project has identified the competences that young people need when adopting a circular economy approach.
The CESCY initiative aims to bring together stakeholders with a specific knowledge set to contribute to the creation of a competence framework for youth work on the circular economy.
Based on their findings, the team has created a competence framework that helps young people to take an active role in the transition to circular societies.
