The deadline to join the Circular Cities and Regions Initiative (CCRI) as a Pilot or Fellow has been extended to 13 May 2022. 

The CCRI is part of the new European Circular Economy Action Plan adopted in March 2020 and aims to support Europe’s green transition by boosting circularity at local and regional level. In order to build capacity and drive economic growth, it works to increase collaboration and knowledge sharing between EU cities and regions. ERRIN is part of the Coordination and Support Office (CSO). 

The call aims to select a group of ten Pilot cities, regions and territorial clusters that will benefit from four years of knowledge-sharing and technical support to speed up their circular policy implementation. Furthermore, 20 Fellow cities, regions and territorial clusters can liaise with the pilot group to engage in the multistakeholder learning process.
