The establishment of the World Bioeconomy Association, a non-profit organisation and NGO, addresses the growing need for a global hub dedicated to enhancing and advocating for the bioeconomy.
The World Bioeconomy Association unites the global bioeconomy community to foster sustainable economic growth and advance the transition to a bioeconomy. Our partners and members include a diverse range of stakeholders, public organisations, business leaders, academics, government officials, NGOs, or other civil society representatives, all committed to pursuing progress in the bioeconomy.
The bioeconomy is a multisectoral concept, embraced by three visions of the bioeconomy in the Association strategy and communication.
The Association promotes circularity of the bioeconomy, while recognising that all bioeconomy principles cannot be always circular. In the bioeconomy, resources are produced responsibly and sustainably, generating raw materials, intermediate and end products to replace materials exiting the cycle, thereby complementing the circular economy balance without reliance on a fossil-based economy.
