About
EVEC Athens offers local implementation capacity for Horizon Europe Missions through urban farming, microgreens production and circular economy pilots.
We contribute real-life testing environments, citizen and community engagement, and low-cost, replicable solutions linked to sustainable food systems, soil health and urban climate resilience.
EVEC can support consortia with living labs, pilot actions, stakeholder engagement, dissemination and co-creation activities, particularly in Mediterranean and dense urban contexts.
We are best positioned as an NGO implementation and pilot partner, translating mission objectives into on-the-ground demonstrators and community-based solutions.
