Interoperable Europe Act enters into force

Published on | 2 weeks ago

Programmes Deployment: Best use of technologies  

The Interoperable Europe Act entered into force on 11 April 2024. It aims to better connect public services for people and businesses by facilitating cross-border data exchange and accelerate the digital transformation of the public sector.

The Act is essential to reaching the objectives of the EU's digital decade, such as having 100% of key public services available online by 2030. Examples of such services include mutual recognition of academic diplomas or professional qualifications, exchanges of vehicle data for road safety, access to social security and health data, the exchange of information related to taxation, customs, public tender accreditation, digital driving licenses, commercial registers.
Interoperability is a core feature of a functioning Digital Single Market and contributes to a more effective implementation of digital features of public policies, from justice to health to transport.

More information on the Interoperable Europe Act can be found in the press release of the European Commission.

Stakeholders planning to submit project proposals related to the Interoperable Europe Act, such as the currently open Digital Europe call "Innovative and Connected Public Administrations", are strongly recommended to demonstrate awareness with the content of the legislation.

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
