FARMWISE
The FARMWISE project is set to transform the EU agricultural sector by empowering farmers and decision-makers with a cutting-edge decision support system that integrates precision agriculture, Artificial Intelligence, and Remote Sensing. FARMWISE offers fresh insights into water quality, quantity, soil health, and nutrient management. Its advanced framework facilitates knowledge sharing among scientists, farmers, and policymakers in a collaborative environment by embracing Systems Thinking. The initiative consolidates existing collaborations and fosters new, long-term partnerships between European organisations, such as Water4All and Water Europe.
The project aims to develop enhanced AI-based tools for more effective European water policy and decision-making, grounded in research-based technologies to address pressing issues of water pollution and climate change. To achieve this, the consortium brings together the foremost European experts in water, agriculture, climate, and AI research to ensure the sustainability of water resources, the natural environment, and efficient agriculture in the highly diverse European landscape, considering both present and future climate change.
FARMWISE actively assesses, monitors, and implements gender and diversity balance within the consortium throughout its planned activities.
SITES Roles in FARMWISE
As the leader of WP6, SITES will lead the efforts in overseeing the Communication, Dissemination & Exploitation aspects of the project. This encompasses activities such as structuring the CDP, Corporate Identity, Networking, and Exploitation assessment. Furthermore, SITES will actively contribute to developing an impact strategy aimed at influencing target policies, ensuring a lasting effect on the FARMWISE outputs. In addition to this, SITES will also make significant contributions to T1.1 (Mapping), T1.3 (Scenarios development), and T1.5 (Capacity Development).

Other Projects
SPECTRA
The SPECTRA project aims to enhance the research and innovation (R&I) capabilities of AUTH in Greece, focusing on Water Quality and Food Safety, Quality & Traceability (WQ&FSAT) to address climate change-related challenges. By combining research, training, and collaboration, SPECTRA will boost scientific excellence, facilitate knowledge transfer, and improve networking both locally and internationally within the European Research Area (ERA). The project seeks to strengthen AUTH’s scientific standing, support the development of skilled researchers, and promote industry-academia partnerships. Expected outcomes include enhanced water quality and food safety, increased consumer confidence in Greek food products, support for monitoring and decision-making, and economic benefits for regional businesses through innovation, new product development, and job creation.
SITES Role
SITES plays a pivotal role in SPECTRA, bringing private-sector expertise in innovation consultancy, eco-innovation strategies, and sustainable development trends. Their contributions include high-level strategic market research, monitoring and evaluation, and strategic planning, ensuring that project outcomes are economically viable and widely applicable. Leading the economic component (WP6), SITES focuses on communicating and exploiting outputs from case studies, managing outreach, and promoting responsible research and innovation (RRI), open science practices, and gender inclusivity. This multifaceted role supports the effective dissemination, commercialization, and long-term impact of SPECTRA’s research innovations.
ENPOWER
Energy poverty affects over 41 million EU citizens, a critical societal challenge recognized by the European Commission. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, about 70 % of households suffer. Addressing this issue requires multifaceted solutions, spanning health, economics, and the environment. In this context, the EU-funded ENPOWER project will catalyse transformative change in Bosnia and Herzegovina, focusing on energy poverty, sustainable buildings, and smart energy. ENPOWER fosters interdisciplinary collaboration with EU partners to innovate solutions. Through initiatives like the Building Advisory System Living Lab, ENPOWER seeks to elevate research excellence and foster inclusive, co-creative approaches with businesses and policymakers. Together, they aim to pave the way for a more energy-secure future.
Objective
ENPOWER will lead the transformative change in Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) to strengthen the scientific reputation, attractiveness and networking channels of the University of Banja Luka (UNIBL) through supporting its innovation and research excellence in energy poverty and justice energy, sustainable buildings, energy efficiency, smart energy, human capital development, and application of innovative approaches, co-creative solution finding with business and policy makers, as well as in involvement of different ecosystems of innovation through the newly formed Building Advisory System Living Lab (BAS-Lab), which will be developed through cooperation with distinguished EU partners with established scientific excellence.
C-TOUR
The European Commission, thorough Erasmus + KA220 VET has granted the
C-TOUR project to the consortium led by (CFL soderhamn-sweden). The project focuses on the development and test of a new VET pedagogy in order to equip targeted VET learners (including the active and/or future workforce and aspiring entrepreneurs in small tourism) with future-oriented skills crucial for circular-economy thinking and support them to become actors of change towards circular, green transitions in the small tourism sector. It will showcase real-world small circular tourism practices, and use them as highly inspirational and motivational VET training tools to offer easy understanding on circularity in small tourism. In addition, it will develop a VET Curriculum along with high-quality multimedia tools covering competence areas of circular tourism.
The objective of the project is to contribute to seeking to pioneer an innovative approach to Vocational Education and Training (VET). Through the development of VET Curriculum and Explainer Videos, C-TOUR aims to design, craft, and validate an entry-level VET Curriculum that places a strong emphasis on cultivating circular tourism skills. Furthermore, we wil produce a series of enlightening and motivational explainer videos. In the other hand, through the creation of Inspirational C-TOUR Digital Stories, the aim is to craft motivational digital narratives under the banner of C-TOUR, which will spotlight instances of small circular tourism practices, effectively advocating and exemplifying the concept of circularity in the domain of small-scale tourism.
The C-Tour has a duration of 30 months starting 01/12/2022 and ending by 31/05/2025. Additionally, the project is implemented by seven European Partners (Sweden, Ireland, Spain, Denmark, Netherlands, Greece and Romania).
The C-Tour has a budget which amounts to €250.000 that the European union finances with a 100% rate through the Erasmus + KA220 VET programme.
