Addressing eutrophication challenges and promoting nutrient recovery and reusepost

Denmark, Finland, Germany, Sweden and Estonia are eligible to apply for grants up to 100,000EUR to support co-creating and implementing two-year action plans to adapt and transfer FERRO’s lake restoration solutions, addressing eutrophication challenges and promoting nutrient recovery and reuse. Horizon cascade funding is available from FERRO, an interdisciplinary project that seeks to foster circularly based management of eutrophication. It integrates a wide array of fields: hydrobiology, remote sensing, biotechnology, engineering and agriculture to facilitate lake restoration efforts in Europe. FERRO will provide the research and conservation community with new tools and methodologies for lake nutrient recovery and reuse in agriculture, as well as help in the identification and prioritization of lakes for restoration around four pillars:

• Classification and prioritisation of lakes for restoration

• Catchment-oriented solutions for reduction and recovery of nutrients

• In-lake oriented solutions for circular nutrient management

• Knowledge transfer and stakeholder training
  

• Everyone who is interested can join the FERRO Open Call Webinar and learn more about the process
