An online survey on youth inclusion in the Bioeconomy (BE) has been launched by the Youth Ambassador Program of the International Advisory Council on Global Bioeconomy (IACGB). BE is an emerging sector that aims to provide sustainable solutions within and across all economic sectors and enable a transformation towards a sustainable economy through the production, use and conservation of biological resources, including knowledge, science, technology and innovation (IACGB, 2020). However, to ensure the success of the BE, it is crucial to involve and engage young people.
The survey aims to gather insights from BE actors on their awareness, interest, and involvement in the BE. The final aim is to understand the challenges and opportunities people face when participating in this sector and gather ideas and recommendations for enhancing youth inclusion in the BE. Your participation in this survey will help in better understanding how to involve and engage young people in the BE effectively. The answers will be kept confidential and used only for research purposes.
Thanks in advance for taking the time to share your thoughts with IACGB!
Are you a stakeholder interested in plastics, construction, textile, and chemical sectors? Join SUSTRACK focus group workshop to boost the transition from linear fossil-based economy to circular bio-based economy!
SUSTRACK is organizing the focus group workshop “Limits, barriers and solutions to boost the transition towards a circular bio-based economy”, which will be held online on June 9th, 2023, from 10:00 to 13:00 CEST, as official partner event of the European Green Week .
The SUSTRACK project is a three-year initiative that supports policymakers in developing sustainable pathways to replace fossil and carbon-intensive systems with sustainable circular and bio-based systems at the EU and regional scale.
The focus group will be organised in two sessions:
Don’t miss it! Attendees will acquire valuable insights into challenges faced by the linear fossil-based economy, and barriers to the transition to circular bio-based economy, as well as into the drivers and benefits of sustainable transition and future activities within the SUSTRACK project.
