BOOST-IN

水资源的数量和质量在许多欧洲地区都是严重的问题，主要是气候变化和人为影响的共同结果。BOOST-IN项目旨在制定一项成功的战略，促进技术变革、治理方案、思维方式和组织结构的转变，以便通过更好地管理水务部门和应用循环经济原则，实现水的再利用和不同材料（如能源、营养物质）的回收，解决这些问题。然而，这些变化的实施仍然面临一些需要克服的障碍（例如技术、经济、知识、社会认知）。BOOST-IN将通过有效的识别、选择（通过特别设计的动态漏斗方法）和创新的水循环经济解决方案（WACES）的转移来实现这些目标，以进一步关闭和改善水循环。该项目将在平均分布在欧洲的六个机会区域（西班牙、希腊、德国、法国、意大利和保加利亚）开发和应用其方法，方法是组织共同创造讲习班，以提高公众对WACES实施的认识和支持，克服障碍，以及设计具体的风险管理计划。在欧盟层面，该项目将建立一个积极的利益相关者网络，并制定详细的行动计划，包括针对水务专业人员的不同培训和教育活动。为了促进和推动市场对循环解决方案的成功接受，并最大限度地发挥其影响，该项目将提供有关合适商业模式的专业知识，制定标准化的质量标准，并促进解决方案提供商与潜在投资者之间的联系。此外，BOOST-IN将升级并受益于现有的Water Europe Marketplace平台，该平台将实现项目集群、B2B配对以及针对特定用户需求选择合适的WACES解决方案。

The quantity and quality of water resources are serious problems in many European areas, mostly being a joined result of climate change and anthropic influences. The BOOST-IN project aims to develop a successful strategy that promotes technological changes, governance schemes, shifts in mind-set and organizational structures in order to solve these problems through a better management of the water sector and application of the circular economy principles, enabling water reuse and recovery of different materials (e.g. energy, nutrients). However, implementation of these changes still faces several barriers (e.g. technology, economy, knowledge, social perception) that need to be overcome. BOOST-IN will achieve these goals by an effective identification, selection (through a specifically designed dynamic funnel method) and transfer of innovative Water Circular Economy Solutions (WACES) to further close and improve the water cycle. The project will develop and apply its approach in six Regions of Opportunity evenly distributed across Europe (Spain, Greece, Germany, France, Italy and Bulgaria) by organization of co-creation workshops to increase public awareness and support for WACES implementation, barriers overcoming as well as by the specific risk management plans design. At the EU level the project will create an active network of stakeholders and set detailed action plans, including different training and education activities targeting water professionals. In order to promote and boost a successful market uptake of circular solutions and maximize the impact, the project will provide expertise on suitable business models and develop standardized quality criteria, as well as facilitate the links between solution providers and potential investors. Moreover, BOOST-IN will upgrade and benefit from the existing Water Europe Marketplace platform that will enable the projects clustering, B2B matchmaking and selections of appropriate WACES solutions for specific user needs.
