Circular.Buildings
Specific objective: SO 6 - Promoting the transition to a circular and resource efficient economy.
Typology: Standard project
The project promotes the programme area's transition towards a circular and resource-efficient economy in the construction sector: by intervening in the sector that today has the greatest impact in terms of both waste production (37.5% of total waste) and CO2 emissions (40% of energy consumption and 36% of emissions), the project will significantly contribute to the cross-border area's transition towards a greener economy.
The project aims at tackling 3 main obstacles that prevent an efficient transition towards a circular and resource-efficient economy in the construction sector
- The extreme weakness of the network between actors of the supply chain, especially between Italy and Slovenia;
- Legislative limitations and the presence of different regulations on the two sides of the border;
- The absence of adequate digital skills;
Project aims to produce guidelines for the initiation of a cross-border circular economy system in the construction sector. In addition, a concrete tool will be developed that can accompany/support the system built up by the project: the "cross-border construction circular economy web portal”. At the level of the individual companies, in order to enable the difficult paradigm shift (digitisation and adoption of circular economy methods), a gradual involvement path has been devised that will require increasing commitment by the companies and ends with the partecipation in the JOINT FINAL ACTION.
