Project description
Training in sustainable innovation in the forest-based bioeconomy
The forest-based bioeconomy is a cornerstone of the EU’s green transition. Forests provide renewable biomass and essential ecosystem services while also enabling the development of high-value bio-based products. However, the sector faces ecological vulnerabilities and climate-induced risks. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the DP-FOBI project aims to implement a doctoral training programme to contribute to the academic and professional development of early-stage researchers. The goal is to ensure that early-stage researchers gain appropriate skills, knowledge and interdisciplinary perspectives to contribute to sustainable innovation in the forest-based bioeconomy.
Objective
The forest-based bioeconomy is a vital pillar of the European Union’s green transition, offering renewable biomass, critical ecosystem services, and the foundation for innovative, high-value bio-based products. Yet, this sector is increasingly challenged by ecological vulnerabilities and climate-induced risks, which demand sophisticated approaches to forest monitoring, assessment, and adaptive management. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, DP-FOBI addresses these pressing challenges by advancing interdisciplinary research at the intersection of ecology, technology, economics, and policy. Through a comprehensive and tailored doctoral training programme, DP-FOBI fosters the academic and professional growth of early-stage researchers, empowering them with the skills, knowledge and cross-sectoral perspectives needed to drive sustainable innovation in the forest-based bioeconomy.
