Project description
A greener future for agriculture and mining
Industries like agriculture and mining are some of the biggest sources of greenhouse gases, fuelling climate change. These sectors face pressure to reduce emissions, but the path to sustainability is complex. Many businesses lack the tools and knowledge needed to make this shift and collaboration between experts, governments and industries is missing. This gap slows progress toward a greener economy. With this in mind, the EU-funded BioFairNet project will create a digital network for collaboration. Through this platform, stakeholders may share insights, co-create solutions and map out sustainable practices. The project’s goal is to support agriculture and mining in making the transition, with a web-based tool built with the input of those directly involved.
Objective
Bioeconomy and Circular Economy Fair Network (BioFairNet) is designed to support hotspots and specific value chains heavily reliant on greenhouse gas (GHG)-intensive industries into leaders of a sustainable bio-circular economy via a digital cooperative network. The network, understood as a digital platform and stakeholder engagement, maps, informs, transfers knowledge, and provides an exchange of communication among stakeholders to support their ecological transition. The following is achieved through instances of co-creation, testing, and validation the final product is constructed with those majorly involved aiming to close the gap on this topic between experts, public administration, businesses, and other stakeholders. The project is a deep dive into two sectors- agriculture and mining, and using a co-creation process, describes the current practice - envisions in both practical, social and economic terms what these sectors will look like post-transition and then maps a pathway to get there. The insights and tools required to support this pathway will be translated into a web-based transition tool that is both developed and implemented with end-users. In fact, the final product (network, identified as BioFairNet) that this project aims to build wants to be an item created with the stakeholders themselves.
