Projektist

thERBN aims to establish a multi-actor thematic network that bridges the gap between existing innovative circular bioeconomy solutions and the real-world challenges faced by small-holder farmers and foresters at a local scale in rural areas. By identifying practical and sustainable approaches to managing biological by-products and residues, thERBN strives to empower practitioners with actionable solutions. As part of its mission, thERBN will ensure open access to long-term digital depositories, like the EU-Farmbook platform. The project will also develop tools in multiple languages to facilitate this knowledge-sharing and to enhance cross-border collaboration. Additionally, thERBN will offer policy recommendations to support the adoption of small-scale circular bioeconomy solutions on farms. The thERBN consortium is led by Ghent University (UGent) in cocreation with 20 partners from 11 countries.
