BIOREGIO boosts bio-based circular economy through transfer of expertise about best available technologies and cooperation models.
AIMS
improving knowledge related to circular economy of biological streams i.e. bio-based circular economyincreasing recycling rates of biological materials e.g. food waste/biowaste, municipal and industrial sludge and agricultural residues transferring expertise about:
- cooperation models, e.g. ecosystems, networks, administrative cooperation,
- best available technologies, e.g. bio refinery, biogas production
ACTIVITIES
joint development of policy instrumentsdefining best practices of bio-based circular economy: cooperation models and best available technologiesdescribing regional biological streams
ACTIONS
regional stakeholder group meetingsinterregional events: roundtable discussions, seminars and site visitspolicy briefs, expert papersregional dissemination events
RESULTS
six policy instruments will be improved: funding of new projects, improving the management of the instruments, influencing the strategic focus of the instrumentsregions will be better equipped to implement new technologies and cooperation models in order to move towards bio-based circular economyincreasing professional capacity among stakeholdersraising public awareness of bio-based circular economy
