The “Training Platform on Textile Circularity” aims to reduce the knowledge gaps that limit the circular transformation of the sector. The platform’s courses cover topics of great relevance in the current context, such as ecological transition, innovation, circular economy, and social responsibility, among others.
The Adour basin is located in south‑western France, within the Aquitaine Basin, and is classified as a Water Allocation Zone (ZRE), meaning that available water resources are structurally insufficient compared to demand. The territory covers approximately 17,000 km², with around 1.08 million inhabitants and a strong presence of agricultural land, especially maize, soybean and other irrigated crops.
Andalusia faces increasingly frequent and prolonged droughts, which requires rethinking irrigation water management under criteria of efficiency, planning, and digitalization—especially in the Guadalquivir basin, where most Andalusian irrigation is concentrated. The document analyzes the institutional and legal framework, special drought plans, and a broad range of technical and digital solutions to help irrigation communities and farms reduce water use without losing economic viability.
The document shows how Alentejo is strengthening drought management by combining hydrological planning, irrigation modernization, and a strong commitment to digital tools to monitor, plan, and optimize irrigation management. It is particularly addressed to hydro-agricultural schemes and farms that need to adapt to a climate change context with less rainfall, higher temperatures, and increasingly frequent and intense droughts.
Drought is a recurring phenomenon that affects Catalonia, altering the water cycle and conditioning both natural and human uses. The severity of drought depends not only on its duration and intensity but also on the vulnerability of the affected systems, particularly the agricultural sector, which is one of the main water consumers in the region.
The textile and fashion industry in the SUDOE region (Spain, Portugal, and southern France) faces the challenge of adapting to the European Green Deal’s requirements, with a strong focus on sustainability and circular economy. The report “Territorial Mapping of Available Technologies”, part of the Fashion Forward project, provides an analysis of current and future technology adoption in the sector.
En el proyecto Soil&WinesResidues se desarrollarán 2 pilotos (a escala de campo y laboratorio) con participación pública, para valorar el estado inicial y la evolución de la salud/calidad del suelo, el uso potencial de los RLC y el impacto de los pesticidas habituales. Esto permitirá tomar decisiones a escala territorial en viñedos similares, facilitando la transferencia y la capitalización translación de resultados, y la gestión más integral en el espacio SUDOE.

FRUCTHOR-IA (code S2/1.1/E0170) is an initiative co-financed through the Interreg SUDOE Programme, with the main objective of optimizing the competitiveness of the fruit and vegetable sector in the SUDOE area through the development of autonomous robotics solutions.
Going beyond the digital transition, it focuses on analyzing the sector’s automation needs and developing 2 types of solutions: a) robotics for crop monitoring; b) robotics for human-robot collaborative work.
The project has a duration of 36 months and boasts a diversified partnership of 10 beneficiaries from Spain, France, and Portugal.
Soil&WineResidues will promote a production model based on the circular economy and eco-efficiency in the wine sector, involving the proper management of soil and lignocellulosic waste
