The AQUABIOPRO-FIT main objective is to promote efficient utilisation of European aquaculture, fisheries and agriculture side streams in feeds and nutritional supplement products promoting fitness and health. To this end, we will develop side stream biomass processing technologies to up-concentrate nutrients and bioactives maintaining product quality and minimising waste. The safety, bioactivity and acceptance of the developed ingredients and products will be documented through cell, animal, taste panel and intervention studies with humans, namely athletes and patient groups. Technical, marketing, economic and environmental studies will complement the documentation portfolio of the AQUABIOPRO-FIT concepts and products. The developed knowledge and principles will be further systematised in net-based training modules, which will follow the intellectual property rights of the developed methods and products. Information material will be created for educating the public and raise awareness of the importance of circular economy and promote acceptance for side stream bio-based products in end markets.

The overall objective of EUNetHorse is to establish an active multi-stakeholder network in France, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Germany, Romania, Poland, Finland, in order to increase the resilience and performance of their equine farms to face environmental, social, health, economic or political crises by widely disseminating practices, tools and solutions that improve (1) their resilience and socio-economic performance, (2) animal welfare and health on farms, and (3) the environmental sustainability of the sector. To achieve this, EUNetHorse will i) increase the flow of practical information between farmers in these 8 countries in a geographically balanced way and taking into account the differences between territories by structuring National-Horse AKISs in each country ii) collect and assess grassroots solutions and practices; disseminate best practices and solutions on the three thematic areas mentioned aboved replying to specific needs iii) achieve a greater user acceptance of the collected solutions and best practices through cross-fertilisation between all actors of the sector (horse breeders, advisors, trainers, technical experts, scientists, policy makers, sector representatives, etc. ) and all levels (local, regional, national and European) during exchange activities allowing peer-to-peer learning such as workshops, demonstration days, training and cross visits. v) maintain the practical knowledge in the long term - beyond the project period - by sharing the full set of project results on the EUFarmbook platform accessible to all, by training advisors and trainers during the project on these topics, by setting up a sustainable network of trainers and advisors who can continue to train equine farmers and disseminate these solutions using the training kit made available through their activities with equine farmers.

<< Objectives >>The general objective of InnoMeatEdu is to use the potential of Europe’s human and social capital originating from Higher Education organisations and the meat industry, in order to exchange and transfer knowledge and know-how in meat science and technology education, by the creation of an e-platform freely accesible. For this purpose, 5 HE institutions, 1 research center and 1 consulting/communication company joined in a consortium. In addition, 33 associated partners support InnoMeatEdu.<< Implementation >>InnoMeatEdu refers to the development of innovative, digital training material for students, professors and professionals of the meat sector. The project is divided into five Work Packages: WP1. Management; WP2. Meat Sci. and Technol. training in HE: Competence Framework Development; WP3. Innovative Training Material Development; and WP5. Connection with the meat industry, dissemination and sustainability.<< Results >>The digital training material produced referring to meat production and processing, safety, quality and entrepreneurship, and sustainability in the meat sector will be freely accessible in the format of Massive Open Online Courses-MOOC through an interactive platform that will be developed under the scope of the project and will be available in several languages. InnoMeatEdu is based on the cooperation of different institutions and industries, with the collaboration of 33 associated partners.
