H2020 Societal Challenge 5Climate action, environment, resource efficiency and raw materials
Info Day IncoNet EaP 11/11/2015 @ ChisinauTania Van Loon, NCP Brussels Coordinator & Manager, Programme Committee member Climate & Energy for Belgium
Designed to bring more nature, natural features and processes into cities through systemic human intervention -> engineered solutions (NO bio-mimicry, NO bio-materials)
Towards an EU research and innovation policy agenda for nature-based solutions & re-naturing citieshttp://bookshop.europa.eu/en/towards-an-eu-research-and-innovation-policy-agenda-for-nature-based-solutions-re-naturing-cities-pbKI0215162/
Positioning Europe as a global market leader in water-related innovative solutionshttp://ec.europa.eu/programmes/horizon2020/en/h2020-section/water-innovation
Support the needs of relevant EU water, innovation and resource efficient policies, water-related initiatives and international commitments: European Innovation Partnership (EIP) on Water, the EIPon Agriculture, the Joint Programming Initiative (JPI) on Water, SPIRE Public-Private Partnership (PPP), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Rio+20…

Smart and Sustainable Cities
Growing proportion (currently 72%) of the EU population lives in cities
Cities challenges -> air quality, heat island effects, flood risks, increased criminality and marginalisation, derelict industrial sites…
Quality of life in cities (including health and social inclusion) and attractiveness (for learning, innovating, doing business, finding jobs), are key parameters in the global competition for talents, growth & investments
Need to increase overall energy and resource efficiency of cities
(Smart Cities and Communities Lighthouse Projects)
Evidence base is needed to prove the (cost) effectiveness and replication potential of NBS on climate/water resilience and on inclusivity and equitability Climate and water
resilience or inclusive
urban regeneration
For co-design, co-
development
and co-
implementation
Coordinate

programmes
2017 Climate inducement prizes expected !
Exact scope, nature and selection criteria to be confirmed
Four prizes, each covering a different area
Achieving a plastic-free environment (ie in rivers, lakes, and/or oceans
Circular economy, whole value chain, focus retail sector
Valorising the potential of cultural heritage for sustainable development
New products and services that harness Earth observation data and can be taken up by industry and put on the market to respond to citizen’s needs
+ Horizon Prize on materials for clean air will be awarded to the most affordable, sustainable and innovative design-driven material solution that can reduce the concentration of particulate matter in urban areas - Open 23/01/2017-23/01/2018 http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizonprize/index.cfm?prize=clean-air

Some wording & templates 2016-17 slightly different from 2014-15
Choose a suitable role in a Consortium
Gather partners you know + find NEW partners (EEN)
• Soundness of the concept, and credibility of the proposed methodology;
• Extent that the proposed work is beyond the state of the art, and demonstrates innovation potential
•Appropriate consideration of interdisciplinary approaches and, where relevant, use of stakeholder knowledge
Impact
• The extent to which the outputs of the project would contribute to the expected impacts mentioned in the work programme
•Any substantial impacts not mentioned in the work programme, that would bring other important benefits for society
•Quality of the proposed measures to exploit and disseminate the project results, to communicate project activities
Quality and efficiency of the implementation
•Quality and effectiveness of the work plan;
•Appropriateness of the management structures and procedures, including risk and innovation management;
• Complementarity of the participants;
•Appropriateness of the allocation of tasks, ensuring that all participants have a valid role and adequate resources in the project to fulfil that role
Also for start-ups (ca. 1/3 have less than 3 years of trade)
Also for very small (ca. 1/3 funded companies have up to 5 employees)
It is all about BUSINESS & impactWho are your (potential) clients? Competitor?Why will you clients they want to pay?How will the service/product change the market?Do you have “freedom to operate” (IPR)?
