Transition2BIO is a communication and support action that promoted the transition towards a more sustainable Europe.

Transition2BIO built upon the most relevant communication and education EU funded projects and initiatives to contribute to the implementation of the updated 2018 EU Bioeconomy Strategy and promoted the transition towards a more sustainable production, consumption and lifestyle by implementing an integrated package of activities addressing a wide range of target stakeholders, namely: demand side; supply side; multipliers and supportive environment.

The project:

• Valorizes and exploits sectoral communication tools and activities developed at national, regional and local level by EU funded bioeconomy projects and other relevant initiatives
• Raises awareness on bioeconomy at large and the related environmental and socio-economic impacts for European citizens through communication activities
• Contributes to the transition towards a more sustainable production, consumption and lifestyles through engagement and education activities
• Contributes to the deployment of the regional bioeconomy strategies by providing Member States and Regions with methodologies, mentoring, capacity building, tools and materials to raise awareness and communicate bioeconomy (contributing to action 2.3 of updated EU Bioeconomy Strategy)
• Facilitates the identification of the educational and training needs towards the creation of an innovation ecosystem for bioeconomy (contributing to action 2.4 of updated EU Bioeconomy Strategy)
• Strengthens the European Bioeconomy Network to maximize the collaboration among and impacts of EU-funded projects in bioeconomy (contributing to action 2.3 of updated EU Bioeconomy Strategy)

Transition2BIO was promoted by the founders of the European Bioeconomy Network, an alliance of 57 projects and initiatives promoting Bioeconomy. The project partners were involved in the most relevant communication and education EU funded projects (BIOVOICES, BLOOM, SHERPA, BE-Rural, Biobridges, LIFT, NEXTFOOD, BoostEdu, etc) and initiatives like the European Bioeconomy University.
