Showing Europe how ecodesign greens our economy

06 Dec 2021

Joining forces with other programmes!

Reducing waste and ensuring sustainable use of our natural resources can’t be done by one country alone. We need more effective transnational solutions like the two successful examples from the Baltic Sea region and Central Europe show.

The Interreg projects EcoDesign Circle and BIOCOMPACK-CE advanced a circular economy approach in different parts of Europe, putting the European Green Deal’s principles into practice.

In the Baltic Sea region, the #MadeWithInterreg projects EcoDesign Circle and EcoDesign Circle 4.0 brought forward “ecologically-minded” thinking for all stages of the product life cycle. Their work helped companies, design centres and agencies around the Baltic Sea region to proceed with circular transformation.

In coastal regions around the Baltic Sea, the impacts of climate change are becoming increasingly evident, posing challenges for local communities, businesses, and authorities alike.

Recently, we had the opportunity to sit down with Rimants Lulis from Saulkrasti Municipality, one of the partners of the project, to discover more about how this project can benefit the municipality and the community in Saulkrasti.
