SIDE EVENT
“Bio–economy and Development. Beyond the Crisis, a New World“
Bio–economy is an environmental and economic theory and practice by which you can proceed towards a new ecological and social development. With bio–economy you can define new areas of research and develop new programs for an appropriate use of natural, biological and renewable resources to overcome poverty and produce safe and wholesome food, but also materials, energy and other products. In this regard, we propose to launch a bio–economy strategy in view of the world‘s population increase (up to 9 billion inhabitants in 2050) and the scarcity of natural resources.
