Join the CIRCUNAUTA Consortium: Fostering the adoption of circular practices in tourism, through the development of circular systemic solutions across several areas
CIRCUNAUTA is a proposal under preparation for the upcoming CCRI 2025 call, focused on advancing the circular economy in the tourism sector by developing and implementing Circular Systemic Solutions (CSS) in key areas such as bioeconomy, water, textiles, construction, and the blue economy.
The consortium is seeking a sixth regional demonstrator partner to join as a validator or replicator of these solutions within their territory. The project aims to achieve high-impact, real-life implementations, fostering cross-sectoral collaboration by engaging key stakeholders such as SMEs, public authorities, and civil society.
CIRCUNAUTA will support the design and validation of governance, business, and financing models for long-term systemic solutions; the assessment of impacts using CCRI KPIs for circularity, resource efficiency, and territorial cohesion; the development of Digital Product Passports (DPPs); and the use of participatory tools to capture local values and perceptions, enabling context-aware replication.
This project offers a strategic opportunity for regions looking to drive circular transitions through tourism, strengthen regional value chains, and align with the EU sustainability agenda. Interested entities are invited to get in touch to explore how to join the consortium.
