Il bando rientra nella Destination 7 – Innovative governance, environmental observations and digital solutions in support of the Green Deal vuole assicurare che il processo di transizione verde passi per un’innovazione nei modelli di governance, un’informazione e conoscenza disponibile e accessibile, e un utilizzo diffuso delle osservazioni ambientali e delle soluzioni digitali.

L’obiettivo generale del cluster “Food, bioeconomy, natural resources, agriculture and environment” è proteggere l’ambiente, ripristinare, gestire e utilizzare in modo sostenibile le risorse naturali e biologiche della terra, del mare e delle acque interne per fermare l’erosione del suolo, garantire la sicurezza alimentare per tutti e la transizione verso un’economia circolare, a basse emissioni, efficiente dal punto di vista delle risorse e verso una bioeconomia sostenibile.
