The RE-MED community mobile application
A mobile application for reporting illegal dumping sites which will create a new relationship between the public sphere and its users. By transmitting the photo and geolocation of the dump he/she encounters in the public space, the citizens is empowered to improve his/her living conditions. This activity will include the design of the application with all partners. Construction, uploading, updating and maintenance will be carried out by Dynedoc.
RE-MED: guide opérationnel - valorisation DC&D en technique routière
The RE-MED project aims to transfer and experiment enabling technologies that allow construction and demolition waste (CDW) to be transformed into resources for the construction and maintenance of roads.
The purpose of this guide is to provide operational specifications concerning the environmental acceptability of alternative materials made from some CDW in road construction. The document specifies the framework within which they must be manufactured and the restrictions on their use and application and it sets out the obligations of the various parties involved in a road project, with a view to ensuring that a record is kept of worksites where CDW has been used.
This application guide is primarily intended for:
- Owners and contractors of construction and public works sites, to enable them to ensure optimum management of their waste;
- Owners and contractors wishing to use alternative materials made from CDW in road construction;
- manufacturing and application companies, so that they can offer materials made from CDW offering controlled environmental guarantees.
WEF-CAP: white papers - Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia
The WEF-CAP project tries to support sustainable and resilient agri-food sector production, thus improving the energy and water efficiency: renewables, wastewater treatment, water harvesting and reuse, etc.
Successful technologies in Water -Energy - Food Nexus (WEFN) integrated approach have been analysed and catalogued. In this section there are 3 white papers which demonstrates the importance of adopting this integrated approach and in particular analyze the cases of some partner countries of the project: Jordan, Egypt and Tunisia.
WEF-CAP: policy briefs
WEF-CAP project seeks to consolidate a water, energy, and food regional meta cluster that fosters cooperation and tech-transfer while mainstreaming policy impact for innovation-driven growth.
In this section there are 3 policy briefs related to Water, Energy and Food Nexus (WEFN):
- The Way Forward for the Mediterranean Region in the Face of Insecurities
- Opportunities for an Integrated Water-Energy-Food Nexus approach in the MENA region: Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon & Tunisia
- The Technology Transfer and Capitalization of Water Energy Food NEXUS: Evaluation of WEF Nexus best practices for replication in the Mediterranean region.
INTECMED - Brief e-Bazaar
This document describes, within the INTECMED project (aimed to develop an integrated innovation ecosystem at local level to support technological transfer and commercialization of research results), the e-Bazaar platform, which opens the doors of all research institutions, giving the same access rights to the knowledge and know-how produced within them with a continuous interactive way. The originality of the project concerns the way in which this knowledge is disseminated as well as the needs of members outside it. All parties, Investors and Innovators, will be able to create and manage autonomous modern web profiles ensuring the immediacy and validity of their information and interact through collaboration requests, direct messages and instant notifications.
A.4.2.1_Lebanese Report_Marine litter tackling in Lebanon actions and recommendations
This report consistes in the Lebanese national reports on tackling marine litter, offering actions and recommendations. It was the result of Activity 4.2.1: “Best Policies and Proposal Collection and Fine-Tuning,” which aims to gather concrete good practices, best experiences, and innovative ideas for marine litter disposal from stakeholders in each involved country and across the Mediterranean. The objective is to improve waste management reviews, community-based methodologies, waste reduction regulations, individual and corporate behaviors, and communication strategies. Recommendations are derived from training sessions, awareness days, scientific activities (such as beach monitoring, microplastic sampling, and biota analysis), and networks established during the project.
