Call Urban-Rural Circularity. To speed up a successful transition to a circular society a focus on the interface between cities and their surroundings is essential. Systemic circular solutions contribute to the sustainable development of urban-rural areas. This transition is hampered by an increasing tension between urban and rural areas. The challenge is to close cycles regionally, connecting cities and rural areas. This call is part of the Circular Society programme and meant to initiate new collaborative research or support scaling up existing collaborations within this research theme. The deadline is 28 April.
