MoreThanAJob New/improved policy suggestions report

The MoreThanAJob project has successfully developed new improved policy suggestions through consultations with public administration representatives in target countries, these suggestions have been tailored to maximize the benefits of applying the MoreThanAJob framework.

MoreThanAJob Policy Briefs: Improving policies for the development of more efficient welfare services

Three policy briefs on important social innovation topics were created during the project. Chosen for their relevance and potential impact, they were developed with regional partners and a consultant, validated, and then disseminated through workshops and webinars. These briefs provide detailed recommendations for policymakers aiming to promote social innovation effectively.

MoreThanAJob framework of social schemes and guidelines for its implementation

The MoreThanAJob framework, developed by the project consortium, targets Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) actors addressing unemployment, education, and refugee issues. It provides guidance for innovative social inclusion interventions and access to project sub-grants. Public administration officials are also engaged to improve social inclusion policies. The framework integrates best practices from various countries, offering guidelines for implementation tailored to local contexts, including regulatory compliance, translation, and infrastructure integration.

2.8.2_Catalogue of innovations multifunctional olive systems Jordan

Having identified potentially useful innovations for Mediterranean multifunctional olive systems, the partners of LIVINGAGRO project developed a dedicated Catalogue intended to provide an overview of some of the innovations that may be useful to stakeholders involved with multifunctional olive systems in order to help bring together economic stakeholders and innovators who may be able to collaborate to solve common problems. This activity included assessing the stage of readiness of a potential innovation in Jordan, as well as which type of challenges it addresses.
Taking into consideration the needs expressed by Jordan stakeholders, the research team of the Regional Forest Agency for Land and Environment of Sardinia (Fo.Re.S.T.A.S.) in collaboration with the National Agricultural Research Center of Jordan (NARC) and their technical teams reviewed the information provided. Following this review, the working group went back to the innovators to address questions and fill in gaps, then incorporated the responses into the innovation descriptions. The Catalogue includes innovations related to intercropping in olive groves, olive tree and olive oil authentication.

BEEP video story: How to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model (EE-HBIM)

BEEP project aimed at strengthening the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) to enhance energy efficiency in buildings. The testing of this emerging technology on built heritage was performed to demonstrate its scalability to the entire building stock. The project provided public administrations with a powerful method for the energy rehabilitation of public buildings to be supported with private funds through the Energy Performance Contracting. The project main was an innovative methodology based on the integration of emerging technologies tested on 9 heritage public buildings located in Italy, Spain, Cyprus, Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, and Egypt.

BEEP Guide (extended version): How to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model (EE-HBIM)

This guidelines’ document aims to enhance the capacity of public local administrations to design, and realise innovative energy and environmental improvement on historic public buildings, through a multidisciplinary and integrated digital approach (using Building Information Modelling and performance-based design to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model - EE-HBIM). The guideline is based on the testing of this emerging technology on built heritage in eight different EU and non EU Mediterranean countries to demonstrate its scalability to the entire building stock of the Med area. The project will provide public administrations with a powerful method for the energy rehabilitation of public buildings to be supported with private funds through the Energy Performance Contracting (EPC).

BEEP Guide: How to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model (EE-HBIM)

This technical guideline proposes a methodology for the energy audit of a historical building to support its energy and environmental improvement, from the analyses to the design stage up to the implementation, using Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) to attract funding. Each section of the guideline can also be used as a technical specification for tender activities.
