Identification of food waste conversion barriers
The REFRESH report ‘Food waste prevention and valorisation: relevant EU policy areas’ (D3.3) analysed the policy context, specifically current EU policies and regulations, in the field of tension between demand for sustainability, safe and healthy food supply and resource efficiency. This report integrates the view on actual barriers and opportunities for the intended valorisation option. As concluded in D3.3, current legislation heavily limits the use of side and waste streams containing animal products, in animal feeds. This document explores how such valorisation would be possible within the intended effect of legislation (actually intending to prevent unacceptable risks). Furthermore, we elaborate which factors are dominant in the economic model, and factors that may affect stakeholders’ (from consumers to producers) acceptance.

Club GREY HORSE – Providing multiple ecosystems services by forest renters
This case study is drafting new legislation that allows renting forestland for multiple purposes in order to increase economic efficiency and maintain a balance between all ecosystem services. This Russian case works on regulation mechanisms so that people renting forestland can use it for multiple purposes, and to include ecosystem services in the Forest Code.
Spiritual forests and forest kindergartens
This factsheet explores how managing forests to be used as spiritual forests and forest kindergartens could benefit both the forest and the forest owner. The core impact of the case study is to raise awareness of the importance of cultural ecosystem services and to motivate forest actors to manage forests appropriately.
Forests for water in Catalonia
This innovation case is strengthening the link between forests and water with the overall aim of diversifying financing sources for forest management by integrating ecosystem service provision into the economic balance sheet. Work includes integration in the Urban Masterplan for the Rialb Reservoir where different local stakeholders (economic, tourism, water and others) are already working together. The aim is for written recognition in a legal document of the role of forestry in water and landscape conservation, and the recognition of forestry as a potentially relevant economic activity in the area that can be promoted along with tourism. The innovation action also works with the public Segre-Rialb Consortium to assess the suitability of a payment for ecosystem services scheme in relation to water in the area.
