About the Project:

The ETICA project, funded by the Horizon Europe ERA Chair Programme, attempts to promote open discussion on the multitude of social and political challenges with the aim of promoting more participatory forms of democracy and governance. The five-year research theme of ETICA, “Hope and Trust in a Time of Multi-Crises,” was chosen to reflect the current realities of Armenia and the world. ETICA has no commitments to any political ideology or party, but it can fulfill its objectives only within a free and democratic environment, where people are not afraid to speak openly or to disagree. Armenia’s success in preserving its democratic values will be the key to facing the ethical challenges that all societies must address.

End Date: July 2028

Project Background

The Organics Mobilized: Accelerating Social Transformation Towards Circular Bioeconomy project supports Armenia's transition toward sustainable organic waste and biomass management through integrated circular economy approaches.
