ERRIN is responsible for the capitalisation work within the project, which aims to transfer the results from the Green Growth Community to the whole Mediterranean area and beyond, and to promote the integration of these results into policy frameworks at EU, Mediterranean and regional level. Advocacy activities will be undertaken to further promote the results as well as the MED green growth approach, together with liaising activities directed towards relevant stakeholders. Cooperation and networking with key partners, both inside and outside the MED area, is also an imperative part of the capitalisation work.
Further, ERRIN will be in charge of organising quadruple helix stakeholder workshops in five Mediterranean regions, with the aim to create a multi-stakeholder dialogue on sustainable development and to share best practices in the field of green growth, which will promote the effective transfer of concrete results into regional policies.
The mainstreaming activities, which ERRIN is leading on, provides an opportunity for ERRIN members to take part of the outcomes of the Green Growth Community, and to use this knowledge and best practices to improve green growth policies in the regions by integrating these outcomes into their regional policy frameworks. By participating in the mainstreaming activities, member regions will be able to further develop their regional policies related to areas such as agri-food, eco-innovation, waste management and resource efficiency, and will also be able to expand their networks and create new partnerships.
When relevant, ERRIN members are invited to participate in the project’s capitalisation events and regional workshops. In addition, the Green Growth project will look to produce policy position papers and recommendations on the green growth thematic which can feed into ERRIN’s policy work and vice versa.

The Interreg MED Green Growth project, in which ERRIN is a partner, is organising its final event 'Boosting circular economy in the transition towards climate neutrality' in Brussels on 1 June. Taking place the day after the EU Green Week conference in Brussels, the event presents a perfect opportunity for participants to combine both events and to network with circular economy enthusiasts from across Europe.
The webinar, organised by the Union for the Mediterranean and the Interreg MED Green Growth community, aims to provide current insight and future predictions on the importance of food losses, food waste reduction and organic waste management in the Mediterranean region.
