- Development of the operational model and methodology of collecting data, updating, and sharing methodologies to specific groups of stakeholdersPublication . Kochanska, Ewa; Adamkiewicz, Iwona; Wozniak, Katarzyna; Przygodzki, Zbigniew; Trippner-Hrabi, Justyna; Feltynowski, Marcin; Szafranska, Ewa; Jeziorska-Biel, Pamela; Nalej, Marta; Jażdżewska, Iwona; Adamus, Jagoda; Chadzyński, Jacek; Podgórski, Marcin; Bielinski, Dariusz; Siciński, Mariusz; Gozdek, Tomasz; Wręczycki, Jakub; Okraska, Michal; Benedetti, Vittoria; Menin, Lorenzo; Patuzzi, Francesco; Baratieri, Marco; Peppas, Antonis; Politi, Chrysa; Skendera, Doris; Lenssen, Jip; Turati, Daniele; Ravaglia, Pieter; Imiela, Mateusz; Eusebio, Ana; Reis, Alberto; Sousa Rocha, Cristina; Camocho, David; Alexandre, Jorge; Quental, Lídia; Moura, Patrícia; Patinha, Pedro; Lukasik, Rafal M.; Wozniak, Patrycja; Tyczkowski, Adam; Bergamin, Sara; Waszak, Lukasz; Laskowska, Agnieszka; Mirys, Magdalena; Pakowska, Anna; Kałucka, Diana; Straszyńska-Pięta, Katarzyna; Rocha, Monike; Pascale, Carmine; Meletis, Konstantinos; Kehri, Roula; Gazis, Nikos; Stamatakis, Andreas; Bos, Sander; Fonseca, Graca; Cabral, Alexandra; Wojdal, LailaABSTRACT: The overall objective of the FRONTSH1P project is to ensure the green and just transition of the Polish Lodzkie Region towards decarbonization and territorial regeneration through demonstration at TRL7 of four Circular Systemic Solutions (CSS), interconnected one each other and facing the identified regional challenges/opportunities. FRONTSH1P systemic approach will be enabled by a circular governance model that connects environmental policies with social justice through just transition ensuring environmental sustainability, jobs and social inclusion. The flexibility and modularity of the four CSSs guarantee a high replicability and scalability to other territories across Europe and beyond and this will be demonstrated with the involvement of four additional Regions across EU. This report – Deliverable 2.2 (D2.2) is the result of the work carried out under the Work Package 2 - Regional Systemic Circular Economic Approach, Task 2.2. - Regional Circularity Booster Toolkit. D2.2 meets the FRONTSH1P key enabler and requirement, presents the initial approach of the digital platform creation and methodology for data collection and sharing scheme elaboration. The EU General Data Protection Regulation and open data compliant frameworks have been addressed in D2.2 too.
- Product-Service development for circular economy and sustainability coursePublication . Sousa Rocha, Cristina; Camocho, David; Sampaio, João; Alexandre, JorgeABSTRACT: This book is an output of the ERASMUS+ KATCH_e project. KATCH_e stands for “Knowledge Alliance on Product-Service Development towards Circular Economy and Sustainability in Higher Education”. This was a 3-year project (2017-2019), aiming to address the challenge of reinforcing skills and competences in Higher Education and within the business community, in the field of product-service development for the circular economy and sustainability, with a particular focus on the construction and furniture sectors.
- Education for zero waste and circular economy sector in EuropePublication . Glavic, Peter; Szilagyi, Aida; Karouti, Isavella; Kostoulas, Achilleas; Hernaez, Oihana; Dolinsky, Martin; Schonfelder, Thomas; Ruzicka, Pavel; Stawecka, Gosia; Karadimas, Dimitrios; Sousa Rocha, Cristina; Camocho, David; Ziberna, Bojana; Atin, Eugenia; Hammerl, Barbara; Schnitzer, HansABSTRACT: The Erasmus+ project Education for Zero Waste and Circular Economy started in 2018 to fill a gap in Vocational Education and Training, create a new training course and develop interdisciplinary skills needed for new jobs. The consortium of ten partners from nine European countries intends to produce an interactive platform, comprising a Knowledge Hub, an Online Course and a Diagnosis Tool. One of the first activities of the consortium was to analyse the stateof-the-art in zero waste and circular economy in partner countries. The employment situation was considered, along with experience, qualifications and skills needed for trainees. An overview of the existing training was carried out, including educational methods, types of training organizations, duration of activities, and teachers’ and trainers’ qualifications. Basic information on the existing curricula and certification processes was reviewed. A special section was devoted to good practices. Links and references have been collected for each partner state.
- Economia circular: conceitos e tendências de mercado [Comunicação oral]Publication . Sousa Rocha, CristinaRESUMO: O aumento do desenvolvimento industrial num número crescente de países, trouxe um aumento sem precedentes no consumo de recursos naturais e na poluição. O produto interno bruto (PIB) mundial aumentou 25 vezes desde 1900, elevando em 10 vezes a extração global de recursos (EEA, 2016). O crescimento da população mundial é de ca. 83 Mio/ano (1,1%). Entre 1800 e 2020, cresceu de 1.000 Mio para 7.900 Mio.
- Design for Circular Economy in a Strong Sustainability ParadigmPublication . Sousa Rocha, Cristina; Antunes, Paula; Partidário, Paulo JorgeABSTRACT: Given the strategic role of design when addressing societal changes and its prominence in the circular economy (CE) discourse and practice during the past decade, a plethora of tools and methods is nowadays available to support organizations in the transition from a linear model of production to a circular one. The need for an intersection of CE, corporate sustainability, strategic design and strong sustainability is gaining momentum. Considering (a) the critical voices pointing out several limitations to the CE concept, (b) the call for linking CE to a strong sustainability paradigm and (c) the implementation mechanisms for an effective contribution to sustainable development, the focus of this research is to address the gap in CE and circular design frameworks due to missing elements therein for its successful implementation, using a Delphi method approach. Our results strongly suggest that the current CE and circular design concepts and practices are insufficient to meet the challenge of addressing strong sustainability, and new models are needed. To conclude, a new definition of design for CE in a strong sustainability paradigm and a first approach to the main elements of the new model assisted by guiding principles are proposed.

- Panorama das estratégias de circularidade na energia eólica e solar fotovoltaica em PortugalPublication . Simões, Teresa; Sousa Rocha, Cristina; Jordao, Cristine; Camocho, David; Alexandre, JorgeRESMO: Na versão revista em junho de 2023 do Plano Nacional de Energia e Clima, as perspectivas de evolução da capacidade instalada para a produção de electricidade através das tecnologias eólica e solar fotovoltaica no horizonte 2030 são as seguintes: Eólica: 124 GW (dos quais 104 GW onshore e 2 GW offshore); Solar Fotovoltaica (PV): 204 GW (dos quais, 142 GW serão centralizados e 55 GW descentralizados. Estes valores correpondem a um cenário associado a um aumento muito significativo na procura de energia resultante de diversos projetos insdustriais verdes, e outros, previstos serem iplementados em Portugal na presente década.
