Capitalisation As A Vehicle For Green And Circular Business Development
This report offers a comprehensive assessment of capitalisation methodologies employed in the field of green and circular business within the Mediterranean region, alongside their anticipated outcomes. It offers profound
insights into the role of green and circular businesses, underlining the importance of capitalisation. The report provides an in-depth analysis of the capitalisation methodology adopted by the RESET Project, alongside other capitalisation project methodologies within the MED, serving as case studies to evaluate enabling factors and challenges for future capitalisation endeavours. Finally, the report provides strategic recommendations for the design and implementation of capitalisation projects.
Knowledge in Circular Economy Practices: Analysis Report on Impact Measurement for Circular Economy
The main objective of this report is to provide an analysis on the implementation of selected outputs within the 19 identified key projects under the theme of “Knowledge in Circular Economy Practices”. The report is designed to support stakeholders in identifying, capitalising on, and benefiting from existing outputs to enhance their work in relation to the identified theme.

The report is designed to support stakeholders in identifying, capitalising on, and benefiting from existing outputs to enhance their work in relation to the identified theme.
ACCESS TO NETWORKS, COLLABORATIONS & CONTACTS ANALYSIS REPORT ON THE CENTRALISATION OF DIGITAL DATABASES
The main objective of this report is to provide an analysis of the implementation of selected outputs within the 19 identified key projects under the theme of “Access to Networks, Collaborations, and Contacts”. The report is designed to support stakeholders in identifying, capitalizing on, and benefiting from existing outputs to enhance their work in relation to the identified theme.
RESET GUIDEBOOK OF PROJECT OUTPUTS
RESET focused on identifying, gathering, analysing and synthesising knowledge regarding how to best support
sustainable and green entrepreneurs and start-ups.
Throughout the process, RESET adopted a Capitalisation Framework aiming to define the methodology needed to
achieve the above-mentioned objective.
The Capitalisation Framework included the following questions:
1. Where is the knowledge?
2. What is the knowledge?
3. What knowledge is needed?
4. How to use the knowledge?
This Guidebook demonstrates how RESET responded to these questions through the various activities conducted
throughout the project
Informative material: Irrigation and Maintenance (Palestine)
Water scarcity in Mediterranean countries is often the result of inadequate infrastructure and management practices. The MENAWARA project aims to improve access to water through the treatment of wastewater to be reused as complementary irrigation and to strengthen the capacity of all stakeholders operating in the sector. This section contains informative material relating to irrigation practices, specifically in Palestine.
Informative material - Safe reuse of treated waste water in agriculture
This section contains informative material on the safe reuse of treated waste water in agriculture. The reuse offers an important alternative source to release pressure on the freshwater resources and it can be useful to address the issue and crisis of water scarcity in Palestine.
Water Reuse in Agriculture in a Living Lab environment
In a living lab environment, We World - GVC Onlus, NARC and ONAS supported by all relevant stakeholders, tested improved irrigation systems supplied with treated wastewater (TWW) of better quality thanks to the rehabilitation of their Waste Water Treatment Plants to increase the production of lemon, olives, grapes and fodder. In the target areas, a governance model has been built that, thanks to the living lab approach, is impacting the perception of reuse to public officials and population.
Innovative Constructed Wetlands in Carrion de los Céspedes (Andalusia)
In order to increase treated waste water quality to be reused in agriculture, thus tackling more and more frequent periods of drought, in the experimental Waste Water Treatment plant of AMAYA, in Carrion de los Céspedes (Spain) a low-cost treatment train composed by Constructed Wetlands (including different types, working configurations and innovative systems) has been implement. The documents report the technical description of pre and post treatments and the assessment of their efficiency.
Pre and post treatments implemented in the Waste Water Treatment Plants of Tunisia, Palestine and Jordan
One of the aims of the MENAWARA project was to increase treated waste water quality to be used in agriculture, based on Non-Conventional Water supply technologies and practices already existing in the intervention areas and technical and sociopolitical constraints (efficiency of plants, acceptance by local communities and banning of some irrigation techniques by governments). In these documents, pre and post treatments implemented in the Waste Water Treatment Plants in the intervention areas of Tunisia, Palestine and Jordan are described and their efficiency assessed.
Forested Infiltration Area (FIA) System
The FIA technique was identified by NRD-UNISS’ researchers as a Nature Based Solution potentially useful for mitigating the nitrate groundwater pollution in the Arborea plain, in Sardinia (ITALY). Easy to implement even over large spatial scales, the FIA technique also offers a series of supplementary ecosystem services, such as the increase in biodiversity, carbon sequestration and environmental recovery, thus increasing the potentiality of replication of the technique also in contexts outside the Arborea area. The documents details the technical aspects of the Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) system through the FIA technique implemented and related achieved results.
Glossary on water reuse in agriculture
With the aim to facilitate a proper understanding of the terminology used in the frame of water reuse, and contributing to ensuring the proper use of associated terms, a glossary section has been created and included in the MENAWARA interactive platform. Definitions are both in English and in Arabic, while the terms have been translated in Spanish, Italian, French, Greek and Arabic, the languages spoken within the MENAWARA and MEDWAYCAP projects.
It is possible to insert a single word in the string to obtain the related definition and/or its translation. The word can be entered in any of the 6 languages.
