RESET - RESults Enabling Transitions: mapping, synthesising and mainstreaming sustainable, green and circular business support achievements in the MED region, for replication and policy-making.
In recognition of the Mediterranean accelerating employment and environmental crises, there are various calls for action to create a sustainable and inclusive economy that ‘works for everyone'. As the region thrives towards developing and implementing measures for a sustainable green transition, RESET aims to facilitate economic and social development via supporting the creation of sustainable and green businesses. The project will gather, analyse and synthesize learnings regarding 'what works' within the field of sustainable and green business support, and seeks to upstream this knowledge effectively. It will support local, national and regional stakeholders to make use of this knowledge to create strategies, policies and regulations to stimulate the green economy. RESET targets seven Mediterranean countries and will address the whole enabling eco-system – from EU projects, local initiatives and policies to national and regional policies and regulations – to capitalize on knowledge related to training, advice, networking services, access to funding and markets, as well as Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) protection, with a focus on women and youth inclusion.

RESET - RESults Enabling Transitions: mapping, synthesising and mainstreaming sustainable, green and circular business support achievements in the MED region, for replication and policy-making.
In recognition of the region's accelerating employment and environmental crises, there are various calls for action to create a ‘a sustainable and inclusive economy that works for everyone'. As the region works towards developing and implementing measures for a ‘sustainable green transition,’ RESET aims to facilitate economic and social development via supporting the creation of sustainable and green businesses.
RESET will gather, analyse and synthesise learnings regarding 'what works' within the field of sustainable and green business support, and work to upstream this knowledge effectively. It will support local, national and regional stakeholders to use this knowledge to create strategies, policies and regulation to stimulate the green economy. It will also support recently-funded EU projects to directly capitalise the knowledge generated by the ENI CBC Med Fund, ensuring results of previous projects are woven into the methodologies of ongoing projects.
Delivered by a consortium of partners in Spain, Italy, Lebanon, Tunisia and Palestine with breadth and depth of experience across sustainable, green and circular business creation; green investment; local, national and regional policy making related to the green economy; and EU project delivery, especially within the ENI CBC fund.
RESET will target Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine and Tunisia and work across the whole enabling eco-system – from EU projects, local initiatives and policies to national and regional policy and regulation – to capitalise knowledge related to training, advice, networking services, access to funding and markets, as well as IPR protection, for sustainable and green entrepreneurs and startups, with a focus on women and youth inclusion.
RESET aims to create a sustainable business support sector that makes better use of impact data and learnings, and a policy and regulatory ecosystem that is better informed and encouraged to act.
