This library gives you access to policy best practices supporting the development and diffusion of eco-innovation and the circular economy. The topics covered include sustainable public procurement, innovative public-private partnerships, financing schemes supporting eco innovation, regulation and standards, support to technology transfer and partnerships, etc…
You can search the database using free keywords, or using the advanced search tool below.
How to use the search tool and browse the library?
Free keyword search
It is a traditional search engine where you input your keyword(s).
Advanced search
You can search eco-innovation cases according to different criteria:
- Functions: this allows you to look for networks that meet a specific function (for instance: promoting sustainable practices)
- Application fields: to filter the networks according to their sector or economic domain (for instance: renewable energy)
- Countries: to filter networks by geographical zones
- Type of stakeholders: to sort the networks by type of organization involved (e.g. SMEs)
- Maturity level: to sort the networks by degree of maturity
How to browse the library
When clicking on a filter (a tag) of the advanced search engine, the list of articles containing this tag will be displayed. You can filter further the sorted articles using the tags appearing on the right side of the screen.
You can also click on the tags directly in the article texts to browse the library.
Furthermore, you can access each library separately, with a click on the left menu options.
Suggested readings
The “suggested readings” appearing on the right side of the screen are articles from the other libraries (policies, eco-innovations, financing) that contain some similar tags and might be of interest for you.
