Guide for clusters resetting to cross-border cooperation and access to financing tools

The guide aims to give an overview of the collaborative models developed in the framework of the CARISMED project, as well as to identify best practices from each participating city. The structure of the guide includes guidelines for implementing training programs for CCI innovative SMEs, clusters resetting for internal cooperation and external cross-border cooperation best practices.
The training programs in each participating cities have been developed basing on the research activities carried out within WP4. This section of the Guide summarizes this experience
according to the SMEs specific needs in terms of training: Tailor-made programs, based on a solid need analysis, local-based, as each CCI fabric has its specificities, experiential learning approach, and concise programs.

Guide for Low-Cost Adaptive Reuse Strategy- LCARS

The guide covers topics related to Low-Cost Adaptive Reuse

The Low-Cost Adaptive Reuse Strategy- Study Cases of Implementation in six MED-Cities:
Hebron: Participatory laboratory for craftsmen,
Athens; Portable LCARS kiosk
Palermo: Creative craft ship studio
Irbid: Youth Up-Cycling Workshop
Murcia: Nebula creative space
Tunis: Exhibition space for young creatives.

The General focus of the pilot was to define the main characteristics of the pilot area/building and explanation of the choice of the pilot location, the general objective of the intervention on a short, medium, and long term, description of the intervention, key relevant stakeholders engaged in the process (beforehand, along the process and end user), main identified challenges in the implementation and the impact and sustainability: socio- economic and environmental aspects.

Toolkit/Advisory guide of Urban Policy for Med-cities

The toolkit / advisory guide will support and effectively help all interested parties:
- To get familiar with the CE concept and contemporary practices that manage to combine the sustainability principles with Creativity, focusing on a more eco-friendly and innovative economy;
- To get familiar with innovative methods and techniques that gradually create the very dynamic field of the upcycling productivity
- To be more aware of the LCARs methodology.
It is suited for the resetting of the built environment both in the business content and in the building shell.

MAIA TAQA Detailed design of the pilot project - Amman

The MAIA-TAQA project focuses on developing and defining a range of innovative services in the field of resource efficiency (RE), by setting up demonstrators in 3 Mediterranean pilot areas, in Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan. This report illustrates a pilot project implemented in Jordan with the aim of improving and upgrading the provision of power at the Jordan Chamber of Commerce (JOCC) main building in Amman by installing a Building Integrated Photovoltaic System (BIPV).

MAIA TAQA Detailed design of the pilot project - Lebanon

MAIA-TAQA has implemented demonstrator pilot projects in Lebanon, Egypt and Jordan, which have significantly advanced the cause of sustainability and resource efficiency within small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Mediterranean countries. This report provides the main features of the detail design of the Lebanese pilot project in the framework of Work Package 3 (WP3) - "Development of sustainable services in the Mediterranean area".
The pilot project in Lebanon consisted of a construction of a Waste Water Treatment Plant for the Industrial Research Institute (IRI) building, and the reuse of the treated water for irrigation purposes, with the objective to fulfill the following priorities:
- Efficient system with the best quality for price ratio
- Innovative technology for treatment, monitoring of treated water &
valorisation of sludge
- Large potential of application in local context

MAIA TAQA Final Report

The MAIA-TAQA project, focused on developing and defining a range of innovative services in the field of resource efficiency (RE), has significantly advanced the cause of sustainability and resource efficiency within Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) across the Mediterranean countries and it has successfully executed demonstrator pilot projects in Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan. The achievements of these pilot projects have been showcased through various impactful initiatives. This final report illustrates the Pilot Implementation Analysis, the impact on innovative Resource Efficiency solutions (capacity building, the Innovation One Stop Shop initiative, B2B events), highlighting the challenges and lessons learned.

MAIA-TAQA Resources Efficiency Market Assessment Report

The MAIA-TAQA project focuses on developing and defining a range of innovative services in the field of resource efficiency (RE), by setting up demonstrators in 3 Mediterranean pilot areas, in Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan. The "Resources efficiency market assessment report" provides a comprehensive overview on the selected RE services in each pilot country, the RE market situation, the RE production state, the distribution methods, the incentive and financing methods, the challenges and barriers facing the RE services implementation and the RE prospects. The data collected and analysed show that there are significant opportunities in the three pilot countries for the development of these services. The study also shows the governments’ efforts in supporting the services through different incentives and financing mechanisms, in addition to the challenges and barriers that need to be taken into consideration to develop a well-established RE eco-system.

Catalogue of solutions available for the hospitality industry - Water and Energy saving technologies

The project partners have jointly defined a common transnational service to analyze innovative technologies/services/products that combine water and energy for the hotel industry that have great potential and that can be easily replicated in the smallest SMEs.
The GreeninMed project has selected a list of technologies, services and products to
support savings in water and energy consumption in the Mediterranean touristic
SMEs. The structure of the Benchmark presenting each technology is the following
one:
• Technology general description,
• Advantages &disadvantage to estimate the feasibility installing the technology.
• The “potential use in hotel industry”
• Performance and savings potentially achievable applying the technology.
• References about manufacturers/providers of the technology
