Euskadi shows its progress in bioeconomy at the forestry innovation forum in Brussels

Posted on March 2, 2023April 19, 2023 by BP

The Basque Government, together with the NEIKER technology center, participated on January 18 in the 5th Bioregions Facility Forest Innovation Forum, where the latest developments in forest bioeconomy in Europe were presented. Bioregions Facility, a European platform to promote regional bioeconomy of which Euskadi is part, organized this event that took place in Brussels.

According to the European Commission (EC), the circular bioeconomy is one of the alternatives for moving towards a new economic model that is not based on fossil resources. It combines natural resources with new technological solutions to create a new generation of products to replace those we produce today with oil. The importance of bioeconomy relies on mitigating climate change, mainly. 

The Basque Country is committed to the bioeconomy and is one of the leading regions in Europe in this area. To this end, it has the Circular Economy and Bioeconomy Plan 2024, which includes the promotion of the bioeconomy through innovative technologies and is committed to a new model of production and consumption to support the transition of the Basque Country towards a more efficient economy.

In this context, the European platform Bioregions Facility, integrated by the leading regions in Europe in forest bioeconomy (including Euskadi) and led by the European Forest Institute (EFI), held on January 18 the 5th Forest Innovation Forum in Brussels. This initiative has been taking place since 2014 with the main objective of understanding the new framework of regional innovation policies focused on the forestry sector in Europe.

During the conference, the Basque Government, together with the NEIKER technology center, presented its progress in forest bioeconomy. Specifically, the general manager of NEIKER, Leire Barañano, took part in the round table “Priority challenges of the regions for innovation in the forestry sector”. During her speech, Barañano shared what are the priorities of the Basque Country in this field and how they are addressed taking into account the main obstacles.

Euskadi muestra sus avances en bioeconomía en el foro de innovación forestal en Bruselas 

El Gobierno Vasco, de la mano del centro tecnológico NEIKER, participó el 18 de enero en el 5º Foro de Innovación Forestal de Bioregions Facility, donde se presentaron las últimas novedades en bioeconomía forestal de Europa. Bioregions Facility, plataforma europea para promover la bioeconomía regional de la que Euskadi forma parte, organizó este evento que tuvo lugar en Bruselas.

La bioeconomía circular es, según la Comisión Europea (CE), una de las alternativas para avanzar hacia un nuevo modelo económico no basado en recursos fósiles. Combina los recursos naturales con nuevas soluciones tecnológicas para crear una nueva generación de productos que reemplacen los que hoy producimos con petróleo. Según la Comisión Europea, este nuevo paradigma económico es necesario para evolucionar hacia una economía más innovadora que mitigue el cambio climático, asegure la seguridad alimentaria y fortalezca la competitividad y la creación de empleos.

Euskadi ha apostado por la bioeconomía y es una de las regiones líderes en Europa en esta materia. Para ello cuenta con el Plan de Economía Circular y Bioeconomía 2024, que recoge el impulso a la bioeconomía a través de tecnologías innovadoras y apuesta por un nuevo modelo de producción y consumo para apoyar la transición de Euskadi hacia una economía más eficiente.

En este contexto, la plataforma europea Bioregions Facility, integrada por las regiones lideres en Europa en materia de bioeconomía forestal (entre ellas, Euskadi) y liderada desde el European Forest Institute (EFI), celebró el 18 de enero el 5º Foro de Innovación Forestal en Bruselas. En esta ocasión, el workshop se centró en presentar el papel de la innovación en la gestión de los nuevos retos del sector a nivel regional en la Unión Europea (UE). Además de promover la bioeconomía circular, el acto dio a conocer las últimas novedades sobre iniciativas europeas y presentó una selección de casos innovadores durante las 2 rondas de sesiones de trabajo.

Dentro de la jornada, el Gobierno Vasco, de la mano del centro tecnológico NEIKER, presentó sus avances en bioeconomía forestal. En concreto, la directora general de NEIKER, Leire Barañano, tomó parte en la mesa redonda “Retos prioritarios de las regiones para la innovación en el sector forestal”. Durante su intervención, Barañano compartió cuáles son las prioridades de Euskadi en este ámbito y de qué manera se abordan teniendo en cuenta los principales obstáculos.

Además de las innovaciones de Euskadi, se dieron a conocer las iniciáticas de Karelia del Norte (Finlandia) y Renania del Norte-Westfalia (Alemania), regiones también punteras en bioeconomía, que compartieron sus visiones, enfoques y experiencias sobre las transformaciones de la bioeconomía.

Innovación forestal y networking

El evento, referente en bioeconomía a nivel europeo, se realiza desde 2014 con el objetivo de comprender el nuevo marco de las políticas regionales de innovación enfocadas al sector forestal en Europa. Al mismo tiempo, se presentan las últimas novedades que abordan en la actualidad las diferentes biorregiones en ámbitos como el mercado del carbono, la silvicultura climáticamente inteligente o el desarrollo rural. En el taller también se impulsan los servicios ecosistémicos y la mejor integración en la gestión forestal entre todos los agentes implicados, a los que contribuyen de manera transversal la digitalización y la innovación social.

Además, durante la jornada se promueve el networking entre expertos y profesionales del sector forestal europeo para lograr acelerar los flujos e intercambio de conocimientos, fomentando al mismo tiempo la colaboración pública y privada a nivel regional y de la UE.
