On May 15th (Wednesday), ARNO organized an Info Session for the grant scheme of the EICEE project at the premises of “Netaville” in Skopje, attended by more than 35 participants. The main goal of the event was to inform social enterprises and civil society organizations about the open call for grants through which they can test and pilot innovative approaches and solutions in the circular economy.

The „EICEE project – Western Balkan Eco Innovation and Circular economy Ecosystem“ was presented at the event. The presentation highlighted the mission of the EICEE project to revolutionize practices in the Western Balkans through eco-innovation and circular economy strategies. In the second part of the event, Professor Dr. Natasha Daniloska presented the national research, where the basic concepts of the circular economy and the context in North Macedonia were explained, along with the challenges and opportunities faced by social enterprises and civil society organizations in our country. Prof. Daniloska also discussed the latest European trends in the circular economy such as the Digital Product Passport and new EU strategies, concepts, and successful examples.

The event concluded with a presentation of the Open Call for project proposals. Project partners, the Association for Democratic Prosperity – ZiD from Montenegro and CEDRA – Croatia, shared more information about the conditions and the application process and answered audience questions.
