The objective of the initiative is to produce major contributions to the climate targets by 2030, pave the way for climate neutrality by 2050, and increase sustainability and circularity of production and consumption systems in line with the European Green Deal.
It aims to develop and expand the sustainable sourcing and conversion of biomass into bio-based products focusing on multiscale biorefinery processing and apply circular economy approaches such as utilisation of biological waste from agriculture, industry and municipal sectors. It also aims to deploy bio-based innovation at regional scale with the view to revival of rural and marginal regions.
The partnership was established by the Council regulation (EU) 2021/2085 of 19 November 2021

Partnerships group the EC and private and/or public partners, to coordinate and streamline the research & innovation initiatives and funding in some selected key domains.
The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
