Description
A project connecting 11 partners from Portugal (8), Norway (1), Czech Republic (1), and Romania (1), funded by the EEA Grants mechanism, and focusing on promoting the circular economy principles in the construction sector. Developed in the Baixo Alentejo region, in Portugal, composed of 13 municipalities, in a rural area, with a lack of CDW management facilities, and serious knowledge gaps in legal procedures and good practices about CDW management. The project involved the municipal technicians and the micro and small construction companies, because specific constraints have been identified for these two groups regarding CDW management on a local scale.
