BioGov.net is set to organize an impactful EU Policy Workshop on VET (Vocational Education and Training) and Lifelong Learning, scheduled for 29 October 2024 from 15:00 to 16:30 CET in an online format. This workshop aims to bring together key educational stakeholders, policymakers, and professionals to collaboratively shape the future of bioeconomy education across Europe.

Organized in collaboration with partners such as Engage4Bio, BIOBec, Transition2Bio, and Circular Bricks, the workshop will highlight the importance of integrating sustainable bioeconomy practices into formal and informal education systems.
Program Overview
The workshop will open with inspirational case studies from notable EU-funded bioeconomy projects, including BioGov.net, Engage4Bio, BIObec, and Circular Bricks. These case studies will offer practical insights into how bioeconomy education can be improved at different levels of education.
