CircSyst (Circular Systemic Solutions for Plastic, Packaging, Bio-Waste, and Water) is an innovative project funded by Horizon Europe and coordinated by AIJU, which brings together a consortium of 32 public and private organisations from eight European countries: Spain, Belgium, Finland, Greece, Sweden, Austria, Slovenia, Hungary and the UK. With a duration of 36 months and a grant of €10,244,330.61, CircSyst aims to accelerate the transition to a circular economy by developing and scaling replicable solutions across Europe.

The project focuses on three key value chains identified in the European Commission’s Circular Economy Action Plan: water management, bio-waste recovery and plastic and packaging waste reduction. These solutions will be validated in nine demonstrators located in regions committed to the circular economy, including Riba-roja (Spain), Podravje (Slovenia), Flanders (Belgium), Visby (Sweden), Paijat-Hame-Lahti (Finland), Castilla-La Mancha (Spain), Thessaloniki (Greece) and Central and Eastern Hungary.
