Youth Voices Driving the Future of Bioeconomy: GenB Project’s Debate Series Empowers Young Leaders!

The bioeconomy is growing increasingly vital for a sustainable future, unlocking innovative solutions from scientists, policymakers, businesses, and communities working together. With the bioeconomy offering cleaner, sustainable lifestyles, today’s youth are essential to drive this progress. However, young people are often left out of decision-making processes that will impact their futures.

The GenB project is working to change this by launching a new series of debates aimed at amplifying youth voices in bioeconomy policies. These discussions are designed to create a collaborative space where young people can express their ideas, propose solutions, and envision a future led by their generation’s dedication to sustainability.
