Project description
Promoting bioeconomy and rural development through new bio-based initiatives
Dissemination and communication; this is the key to reinforcing the link between the science of bio-based economic models and their actual implementation. The EU-funded BRANCHES project will work to increase the flow of information, new ideas and technologies between European agriculture and forestry practitioners, particularly in rural areas. Bringing together 12 partners and over 30 organisations (including companies, associations, government ministries, councils and federations), the project will summarise, share and present the existing best practices and research results from earlier and running EU and national projects to promote bioeconomy and rural development through new bio-based initiatives. The project will also showcase the success stories concerning forest and agricultural biomass supply chains.
