Michal Strnad: Ethno-regionalist movements in the contemporary EU

This post-doc project investigates ethno-regionalist movements in the European Union, i.e. civil society organisations that seek greater regional self-government and the protection of regional territory and community. It maps their objectives, internal structures, and communication strategies using an interdisciplinary and mixed-methods approach. Findings will inform public engagement and policy-making on the regional, national, and EU level.

Veronika Mokrejšová: Circular solutions for keeping food waste out of Central Europe´s schools (CIRCUS)

Veronika Mokrejšová: Circular solutions for keeping food waste out of Central Europe´s schools (CIRCUS)

Food waste has negative social, environmental, and economical impacts. It is estimated that about 20% of all food produced is wasted in the EU every year – and school canteens even throw away up to 70% of their prepared meals. The foodCIRCUS project works with schools to minimize this food waste. It promotes food waste prevention, and explores innovative circular methods like repurposing waste for insect feeding or generating lactic acid for bioplastics. Their approaches have the potential to revolutionise waste management in schools to make them more sustainable.

Jeremy Garlick: European Hub for Contemporary China

Jeremy Garlick: European Hub for Contemporary China

As China solidifies its global influence, the EU faces a critical challenge in comprehending its complexities. The EU acknowledges that the fragmented expertise on contemporary China at the European level hinders effective policymaking. With this in mind, the EU-funded EuroHub4Sino project aims to address the need for a cohesive approach. The project’s four-pronged strategy includes a cutting-edge digital platform, supporting independent knowledge production on contemporary China as well as ensuring accessible knowledge dissemination. An inclusive network fosters collaboration, maximising the platform’s utility for researchers, businesses, and civil society. This innovative project not only breaks down informational silos, but it also envisions a sustainable future through a pioneering business model. EuroHub4Sino strives to empower Europe with an authentic understanding of China’s multifaceted landscape.
