Algemeen Trends in the EU bioeconomy - update 2024
This document is a publication by the European Commission's Knowledge Centre for Bioeconomy, coordinated by the Joint Research Centre. It aims to provide evidence-based scientific support to the European policymaking process.
Policy monitoring frameworks allow decision makers to assess the performance and progress towards specific strategic objectives that reflect an overall vision. The bioeconomy consists of complex social, economic, and environmental systems. The EU Bioeconomy Monitoring System was developed by the JRC to fulfil the need for a holistic policy monitoring framework and track economic, environmental and social progress towards a sustainable bioeconomy through relevant indicators. The first assessment based on the EU Bioeconomy Monitoring System was published in early 2023. This report is an updated assessment of the EU bioeconomy development to date, using the data available as of September2024.
